- Supporting remote G-Code programming during feed/speed tuning. - Vendor quality.
Role
Project Management CNC Programmer
Summary
At Sequoia, Spencer was the primary CNC programmer. He encountered difficulties writing G-Code as a remote employee because choosing feeds/speeds is often a dial-in iterative process. At MF&A, the primary problem they encounter is the good vendors being fully booked up, and the bad vendors missing quality checks. Estimates they will have issues with ~13% of their contract jobs.
