Manufacturing: Advanced Manufacturing - MFG 103
Basic Computer Numerical Control (CNC)
3 Credit Hours2 Lecture Hours4 Laboratory Hours
Course Description
Students will be introduced to the operation of the CNC Mill through the use of the basic fundamental of “G” codes and “M” codes. Machine and tool set up will also be covered. As part of the class, students will make several small projects on the CNC machines. These machines are used in today’s industrial manufacturing plants.
Prerequisites
(A requirement that must be completed before taking this course.)
