Computer Numerical Control (CNC): Mill (40070-70)

Students learn to program the mill with CNC software and to safely operate this equipment. With these fundamental skills and knowledge, students are then able to use modern techniques to design and manufacture objects.

During the module, students write a PART program and use industry-standard G and M codes. They use the drilling cycle command to mill shoulders and pockets and drill holes on work pieces. In later segments of the module, students design objects and prepare documentation to instruct users to replicate these items.

The following related modules may be used to complement this module: CNC Lathe (40009-2C), Automation and Robotics (40005), and Manufacturing Processes (40040)
