MTT 232 - Computer Numerical Control II

Credits: 4

Description
This course introduces basic lathe operations. Topics and applications cover manual and computer numerical control (CNC) lathe turning practices, tooling, machining practices, G & M codes and applied mathematics. Overview the axis systems, absolute and incremental programming, tool offsets, controller operation, and fixture offsets. Emphasizes critical thinking and problem solving through hands-on experience and practical applications.

Student Learning Outcomes
