CNC 211 Advanced CNC Machining Projects

This course builds upon the skills learn in the first year. Students will begin learning to use more advanced CNC Lathes and Mills in this course. Students will learn to program, set up and operate the C axis on the lathe and the A axis on the Mill, to create much more complicated parts in a single operation. Students will also be introduced to operation and programming of industrial robotic arms to increase productivity in a machine shop. They will begin using advanced digital metrology equipment such as a CMM to do high level inspections of complex parts.
