CNC Milling Technology introduces students to the fundamentals of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) milling. Students learn the fundamentals of CNC milling by working with industrial-based equipment to accurately machine a series of complex parts. Students observe and experience CNC's superiority over time-consuming, less accurate, manually controlled machine tools. Activities challenge students to develop and edit programs and machine assorted parts.
Students gain hands-on experience in proper machine set up, cutting tool selection, tool path simulation and machining center operation. Students design solutions for industrial CNC milling applications with an emphasis on real industrial concerns, such as optimized programming, accurate milling and increased productivity.
CNC Milling Technology employs CNCMotion simulation and control software and the course can be completed virtually without the use of hardware. If using hardware, the BenchMill 6000-series or ProMill 8000-series Machining Centers and their accompanying tooling kits are required.
