CNC 204
CNC Advanced Programming
10 weeks, 60 hours
This hands-on course provides training in advanced setup and programming of the CNC Turning Center and the CNC Machining Center. Students will program and perform setups on production CNC machines to manufacture parts specifically designed for this course. The students will assemble these parts into a model that they will keep.
CNC 204 will concentrate heavily on reducing the setup and cycle time while using advance setup and programming techniques on CNC machines. A strong emphasis will be placed on mathematical calculations and their applications in a machine shop environment.
Prerequisite: Applicants should have one half to one year experience working on CNC machines, and a reasonable understanding of basic G-code manual programming. Students with a CNC 203 certificate fulfill the prerequisite to enroll in this course.
