CNC Operator II

This course will enable CNC students to apply the fundamental principles and applications of setup and operation to a CNC Lathe and CNC Mill. The course will cover the creating and editing of advanced multi-axis CNC programs, setup, and create work-holding fixtures. Students will perform typical inspection processes and be able to produce a production run of parts to the given print tolerance. Prerequisite: MFG 105 or by permission of Technology Program Coordinator.
