In Canada, industrial machining is one of the most popular manufacturing services for industrial parts. It produces parts with the required precision, dimensions and finish to meet the needs of the market by removing excess metal from a part through abrasion.<\/p>\n

Professionals who carry out this process are called CNC machinist technicians. HARtech, a Quebec company that specializes in industrial machining<\/a>, presents the profession in this article.<\/p>\n

What is a CNC machinist technician?<\/h2>\n

CNC machinist technicians are responsible for carrying out various machining processes<\/a> according to customers\u2019 specifications.<\/p>\n

They prepare, program and run machines and tools and check the final product to ensure that it complies with quality, safety and environmental protection standards.<\/p>\n

This involves determining the machining steps<\/a> to carry out based on technical information, preparing the machines and systems according to product specifications, and programming the CNC (computer numerical control) machine tools, robots, and other machining facility equipment.<\/p>\n

What are a CNC machinist technician\u2019s main tasks and responsibilities?<\/h2>\n

A good CNC machinist technician must have a great deal of theoretical and technical knowledge in order to be able to handle the unexpected. They must be able to read and understand engineering drawings, CNC programs and work instructions to make sure that everything is configured according to specifications. Ideally, they should have experience with CNC equipment like lathes, milling machines and CNC grinders.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, these professionals are sometimes required to check the condition of the machines with measuring instruments and conduct basic industrial maintenance<\/a> on them. Finally, CNC machinist technicians must sometimes resolve incidents that occur, identifying the cause and making responsible decisions.<\/p>\n

They also need to keep up with new technologies (using 3D printing<\/a>, for example) and stay up-to-date with their work environment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

How to become a CNC machinist technician<\/h2>\n

CNC machinist technicians are required to have a high school diploma and a qualification certificate that takes four years of training to obtain.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also possible to become a CNC machinist technician with a combination of over four years of experience in the trade and specialized training in metal machining or similar.<\/p>\n

How much does a CNC machinist technician make in Canada?<\/h3>\n

According to sources like Talent.com and Indeed.com, the average salary for CNC machinist technicians in Canada is around $36,000 to $40,000 per year, or between $18 and $20 per hour.<\/p>\n

Of course, salary can vary significantly depending on the technician\u2019s profile and experience. An entry-level position might offer around $32,000 per year, while a more experienced technician might earn more than $45,000 per year.<\/p>\n

What skills and abilities does the job require?<\/h3>\n
