Intermediate CNC Milling
Locations
Description
A four-day intermediate CNC Milling course designed to follow on from the introductory CNC milling course, to allow candidates more time on the equipment to program and machine a wider range of features and applications. This will build on the skills and knowledge previously gained, and aids typical applications in today’s modern engineering environment.
This course enables candidates to gain an understanding of the principles employed in CNC milling to an intermediate level. The learner will gain a deeper understanding into the safety aspects of CNC automated milling processes used in the manufacturing industry.
The learner will develop their understanding of basic ISO and G-M Coding and will manually program a Mini Mill Haas machine to simulate & manufacture a component.
Who should attend?
The intermediate CNC Milling course is aimed at candidates who have a good basic understanding of CNC milling operations, a basic understanding of CAD packages and knowledge of G-coding and programming using Canned Cycles. They should have the desire to up-skill and expand their present abilities to meet future demands.
We recommend candidates attend the Introduction to CNC Milling course before enrolling on the intermediate course.*
*If a candidate has significant experience and wishes to enrol on the intermediate course without attending the introductory course please contact us and we can arrange a call with the CNC Milling Trainer to discuss which course would be best suited to them.
