MTTC 209 - CNC Lathe Programming PREREQUISITES: Program Advisor Approval. PROGRAM: Machine Tool Technology CREDIT HOURS MIN: 3 LECTURE HOURS MIN: 2 LAB HOURS MIN: 2 DATE OF LAST REVISION: Spring, 2019
Introduces two axis CNC lathe programming. Develops the theory of programming in the classroom with applications of the program accomplished on industry-type machines. Studies terminology of coordinates, cutter paths, angle cutting, and linear and circular interpolation.
MAJOR COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Upon successful completion of this course the student will be expected to:
- Consistently demonstrate proper programming format and techniques for manual CNC programming, to machine parts without error. (a,b,c)
- Choose appropriate tooling for specified material and machining operation. (a,b)
- Calculate proper feeds and speeds for optimal tool life, machining time, and part finish. (a)
- Analyze G and M code programs using machine graphics display, verification software, or CAD-CAM verification. (i)
- Complete appropriate documentation for safety, set-up, and quality control purposes.
- Create process plans and routings for multiple machining operations. (a,f,i)
- Properly and safely set-up and operate CNC milling machines. (a)
- Use manual, manual data input, and automatic operation modes. (i)
- Troubleshoot program and machining problems. (b,c)
Note: Letters following objective correspond to ATMAE Outcomes.
