Emphasis is placed on geometry applied to problem solving used to make calculations for machining parts for CNC from engineering drawings. Upon completion students should be able to solve problems required for planning, making, and checking of machined parts. This course introduces the concepts of applied trigonometry for CNC machining. Topics include computing unknown sides, angles, projection of auxiliary lines to solve two or more right triangles as it relates to CNC programming and precision machining. Upon completion students should be able to analyze and make computations in orderly steps to make and inspect parts.
Emphasis is placed on meeting students' needs.
This is an advanced course in parts inspection using Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing, and familiarization of the Coordinate Measuring Machine. Topics include part set-up, tolerance applications, maximum material and least material conditions, perpendicularity and point of intersection. This course is a continuation of CNC 207. Topics include set-up, and operation of a CNC coordinate measuring machine. Students will learn to program and set up a complex part for inspection.
