MACH 125 CNC Projects and Practice

4 credits
Students will improve their machining skills and speed on CNC machines. Students will take skills that they have learned in past classes and combine them with new skills in areas like can cycles, new materials, tighter tolerances, and probing.

Prerequisites: MACH 105 MACH 106 MACH 111 MACH 141 , and MACH 161  

Corequisites: MACH 126 MACH 127 , and MACH 135  

Course Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:

  • Produce the same part multiple times, improving the time to complete the part each time
  • Associate training given on can cycles in the past with use of new can cycles
  • Machine parts from a variety of materials
  • Complete parts using past skills combined with new skills (e.g., thread milling)
  • Apply trigonometry to solve problems to complete setups and make parts

Program Outcomes
This course teaches to the following program outcomes:

  • be prepared with skills to perform entry-level CNC machining and manual machining
  • perform CAD/CAM programming and manual programming
  • set up and operate machine tools with a minimum of supervision
