Description

Learner Profile:

This course is designed for operators currently operating or beginning to operate CNC Mills at an operator level i.e., part loading, basic tool changing, wear adjustments etc. The course is aimed at operators and setters looking to acquire new and upgrade existing skills, and at adult learners with knowledge and experience of the machining process looking to make the step up to CNC Programming. Designed for operators in engineering already experienced using the machine but want that extra bit of knowledge to understand what the programs are doing and how to do simple editing and adjustments of offsets etc.  The course is suitable for learners with 3-axis mills with Fanuc control.

What you will get:

At the end of the course the participants will have acquired basic knowledge for CNC programming and the operation of CNC Precision Mills. They will have gained an understanding of controls, ISO G-codes and cycles relevant to Fanuc controlled CNC precision Milling, giving them the confidence to make understand CNC programs and make minor edits
