MACH 131 Introduction to CNC Programming2 credits This course introduces students to the programming of CNC machines. Given the CNC programming codes and explanations, students will produce CNC programs to control the operation of a CNC machine in an accurate and safe manner. Students will develop a foundation to write simple programs and to read more complex programs.
Prerequisites: ABED 046 (or placement into ENGL 093 or higher) and MATH 087 (or placement into MATH 098 or higher)
Corequisites: MACH 115 , MACH 116 , and MACH 133
Course Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:
- Describe axis coordinates XYZ ABC
- Apply proper calculations of speeds and feeds
- Match G and M CNC programming code to the machine operation
- Give examples of can cycles and modal/non-modal commands
- Illustrate programming format and programming syntax
- Explain cutter compensation
- Find errors to help crash avoidance
- Compile lathe code versus mill code
Program Outcomes This course teaches to the following program outcomes:
- be prepared with skills to perform entry-level CNC machining and manual machining
