Summary

With over 10 years of experience in the aerospace industry, especially in working with multi-task turning-milling machines, I have deep know-how in machining complex and high-precision parts. I have gained extensive manufacturing experience with demanding materials such as high-strength aluminum, Inconel, molybdenum, Hastelloy, and titanium. As a specialized CAM programmer, I develop economically optimized programs that are precisely aligned with the part, the production environment, and the tooling strategy. I pay attention to a clean, modular program structure that ensures reusability, traceability, and efficiency, especially in series production or variant programming. A special focus of my work is CAM-based process optimization: tooling technology: selecting and using suitable tools to reduce machining time, extend tool life, and minimize setup effort; cutting data and toolpath strategy optimization: matching to material, machine, and clamping concept; structured CAM programming: logical program division, feature-based programming approaches, clear cycle control. My programs are designed to combine technically achievable tolerances, maximum process reliability, and high cost efficiency, from prototype to series production. Rely on my experience when it comes to delivering high-quality, stable, and high-performance CAM solutions.
