Machine Tool/CNC Theory and Lab II Part II

Catalog description

Part II of a two-part course that is a continuation of Machine Tool Theory and Lab II Part I. This course covers the purpose, setup and safe use of hand tools, manual machine tools and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines in the advanced phases of metal working. Advanced operation of lathes, drill presses, sawing, milling machines, surface grinders, and cylindrical grinders will be taught, along with the introduction of CNC machine tools. In addition, the student will learn the application of more complicated problems in math and trigonometry as used in industry. Lab sessions will provide opportunities for hands-on application of knowledge gained from theory lecture, discussion, and homework. Pre-requisite(s): MFTS 173 Machine Tool/CNC Theory and Lab II Part I or permission of department chair.
