Where a drilling machine operator can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a drilling machine operator already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Drilling machine operators set up, program and control drilling machines, designed to drill holes in workpieces using a computer-controlled, rotary-cutting, multipointed cutting tool, inserted into the workpiece axially. They read drilling machine blueprints and tooling instructions, perform regular machine maintenance, and make adjustments to the drilling controls, such as the depth of drills or the rotation speed.
