Programming CNC Turning and Milling Machines

This course is designed to be a part of a series of training courses titled “Manufacturing Power” which will address different manufacturing techniques from a practical prospective. Moreover, this course is the second among courses discussing CNC programming. This course will focus on programming different machines and operations.

Course Objectives:

Upon the completion of this training course which is titled “Programming CNC Turning and Milling Machines - Practical Approach”, participants will be able to:

1. Understand G-code programming clearly and professionally,
2. Program CNC lathes and multi-axis machining centers,
3. Program parts on CNC milling machines, and
4. Program canned cycles.

Who should attend:

1- Engineers,

2- Machinist,

3- Mechanical Engineering students, and

4- Students of technical Institutes and schools.
