MACH 205 Multi-Axis Programming5 credits
Students will be introduced to multi-axis processes including 4th axis milling, axial and radial live tooling, and programming. These part-program files can then be output as functional CNC G-code programs. Students will virtually verify toolpaths before running programs on the machine.
Prerequisites: MACH 155 or instructor permission based on work experience
Corequisites: MACH 107 or MACH 117 or MACH 137 or MACH 207
Course Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:
- Create, modify, and manage more complex 2D wireframes from part drawings
- Create, modify, and manage more complex 3D solid model geometry from part drawings
- Calculate appropriate multi-axis speeds and feeds
- Create, modify, and manage multi-axis Work Coordinates Systems (WCS)
- Manage Multi-axis Construction Planes and Graphics Views
- Organize multiple machining operations and their various toolpaths
- Create 3D toolpaths
- Calculate appropriate cutting depth vs radial engagement
- Verify toolpaths to check for errors and crashes
- Generate and edit G-Code programs for use on various CNC machines
