Explain the duties of a CMM Operator.

A CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) Operator is tasked with operating and maintaining CMM equipment to measure the dimensions and geometric characteristics of manufactured parts. Their duties include programming the CMM using specific software to perform precise measurements based on engineering drawings or CAD models. CMM Operators conduct inspections to ensure parts meet quality standards and specifications, documenting measurement data and reporting any deviations or non-conformities. They also perform routine maintenance and calibration of the CMM equipment to ensure accurate and reliable measurements over time, contributing to quality assurance processes in manufacturing environments.
