Credit(s): 3
Lecture/Lab Contact Hours: 2, 2

The course provides the knowledge and skills required to translate the part drawing into a finished product. Part programs will be created with a consistent focus on identifying those specific part features that readily lend themselves to 4-axis structured programming, and simultaneous machining. The individual will be capable of defining the list of required processes and their optimum sequential order, create the complete CNC part program, install the appropriate tools correctly, establish the program zero points, and perform corresponding tool offsets and related machine safety procedures.
