Program Objective: To train the student the basic techniques and applications for computer numerical control (CNC) programs to enhance professional job opportunities or to enable the student to re-enter the workforce . Click Here for a longer version of this course with AutoCAD Training.
Program Prerequisites: A high school diploma or GED, an entrance exam, an interview with a school administrator and employment in a design, engineering or machinists position or possession of sufficient occupational competencies is required. The program does not provide enough theoretical knowledge or practical experience for entry level employment in a new career.
Program Description: The CNC Programming curriculum concentrates on the use of the G-Code programming language to operate CNC machinery such as mills and lathes. Special computer software will be used to simulate tool paths for programs written in class. Students will learn to program and operate a computer and complete the manufacturing process on CAM software. The course also covers elementary computer aided manufacturing principles and methods with an emphasis in computer utilization. A portion of the program is an open lab for students to practice G-Code programming and perform simulation to further develop the skills presented.

CNC50 introduces the basic techniques and applications for computer numerical control (CNC) programming for CNC mills and lathes. Students learn to write G-Code based programs that control CNC machines. . An overview in the areas of electrical discharge machining, communications, statistical process control, ISO9000 is included. G Code programs written by the student will be tested on a Fanuc controller and EMCO 3 axis milling machine using Fanuc software and the programming theory learned in the course. Prerequisite: None
