MACH 209 Multi-Axis Operation5 credits
Students will be introduced to multi-axis operation including the operation of 4th-axis milling, turning centers with axial and radial live tooling, and 5 axis machines. Students will adjust tool offsets using built in probing for part accuracy and safely run multi-axis parts in short production runs.
Prerequisites: MACH 107 or MACH 117 or MACH 137 and at least MACH 151 or instructor permission based on work experience
Corequisites: MACH 153 or MACH 155 or MACH 205
