Aircraft Assembler

Attach brackets, hinges, or clips to secure or support components or subassemblies, using bolts, screws, rivets, chemical bonding, or welding.

Mark identifying information on tubing or cable assemblies, using etching devices, labels, rubber stamps, or other methods.

Inspect or test installed units, parts, systems, or assemblies for fit, alignment, performance, defects, or compliance with standards, using measuring instruments or test equipment.

Set up or operate machines or systems to crimp, cut, bend, form, swage, flare, bead, burr, or straighten tubing, according to specifications.

Cut cables and tubing, using master templates, measuring instruments, and cable cutters or saws.

Verify dimensions of cable assemblies or positions of fittings, using measuring instruments.

Assemble prototypes or integrated-technology demonstrators of new or emerging environmental technologies for aircraft.

Capture or segregate waste material, such as aluminum swarf, machine cutting fluid, or solvents, for recycling or environmentally responsible disposal.

Read blueprints, illustrations, or specifications to determine layouts, sequences of operations, or identities or relationships of parts.

Cut, trim, file, bend, or smooth parts to ensure proper fit and clearance.

Splice cables, using clamps and fittings, or reweave cable strands.

Install accessories in swaging machines, using hand tools.

Assemble prefabricated parts to form subassemblies.

Monitor robotic assembly equipment, such as snake-arm robots, used to assemble, seal, or swage aircraft structures.

Align, fit, assemble, connect, or install system components, using jigs, fixtures, measuring instruments, hand tools, or power tools.

Clean aircraft structures, parts, or components, using aqueous, semi-aqueous, aliphatic hydrocarbon, or organic solvent cleaning products or techniques to reduce carbon or other harmful emissions.

Assemble parts, fittings, or subassemblies on aircraft, using layout tools, hand tools, power tools, or fasteners, such as bolts, screws, rivets, or clamps.

Swage fittings onto cables, using swaging machines.

Adjust, repair, rework, or replace parts or assemblies to ensure proper operation.

Join structural assemblies, such as wings, tails, or fuselage.

Clean, oil, or coat system components as necessary before assembly or attachment.

Install mechanical linkages and actuators, using tensiometers to verify tension of cables.

Fabricate parts needed for assembly or installation, using shop machinery or equipment.

Manually install structural assemblies or signal crane operators to position assemblies for joining.

Place and connect control cables to electronically controlled units, using hand tools, ring locks, cotter keys, threaded connectors, turnbuckles, or related devices.

Fit and fasten sheet metal coverings to surface areas or other sections of aircraft prior to welding or riveting.

Position and align subassemblies in jigs or fixtures, using measuring instruments and following blueprint lines and index points.

Layout and mark reference points and locations for installation of parts or components, using jigs, templates, or measuring and marking instruments.

Weld tubing and fittings or solder cable ends, using tack-welders, induction brazing chambers, or other equipment.
