Computer Numerical Control (CNC) is the seamless integration of computer programming and advanced manufacturing. It is the foundation for all additive and subtractive manufacturing found in modern manufacturing facilities today. This course teaches the basics of G-code and Conversational CNC programming as well as how to operate CNC turning, milling, and multi-axis (4th, 5th, and “live tooling”) machining centers.
Participants will gain “hands-on” experience in machine set-up and operation, including creating actual parts. All learners will be eligible to earn up to 4, Level One NIMS CNC Operator, Set-up, and Programmer certifications. The NIMS subscription will last one year, so learners can return to the RVTC after the course to pursue additional certifications. The Tooling U/SME Certified Manufacturing Associate Certificate (CMfgA) and the MSSC Certified Production Technician (CPT) are also offered as outcomes of this course. An introduction to Mastercam CAD/CAM and Verisurf CMM Inspection technology will also be incorporated into this course. Prior experience in solid modeling and manufacturing is recommended.
The cost of this course is $900.00. However, thanks to grants from the Gene Haas Foundation and the Vermont Training Program, this class may be available at no cost to participants who are currently employed in manufacturing. Please contact
