Ensure the machine is fed the necessary and adequate materials and control the placement or automatic feed and retrieval of work pieces in the machines or machine tools on the production line.

Read and interpret such technical resources such as digital or paper drawings and adjustment data in order to properly set up a machine or working tool, or to assemble mechanical equipment.

Tend automated or semi-automated thread rolling machine creating threads, monitor and operate it, according to regulations.

Use manual switch for adjusting the rolling slide, which holds the die block, of a thread rolling machine.

Set up and give commands to a machine by dispatching the appropriate data and input into the (computer) controller corresponding with the desired processed product.

Types of thread, such as unified thread, metric thread, square thread, ACME thread, buttress thread and their qualities and applications. 

Thread rolling machine operator - Which skills are useful but not essential?

Method of quality control that uses statistics to monitor processes.

Apply ergonomy principles in the organisation of the workplace while manually handling equipment and materials.

Use various techniques to ensure the product quality is respecting the quality standards and specifications. Oversee defects, packaging and sendbacks of products to different production departments.
