PMT 262 Advanced Mastercam/Multi-Axis

The course includes creating tool paths, choosing correct cutting tools and posting a CNC program to be verified on a computer to creating a finished part on a CNC machine tool. Students will be responsible for setting-up and running CNC machines that include multi vise set-ups, 4th axis tombstone, and 5 axis trunnion. Along with a CNC turning center with live tooling, "Y" axis, and bar feeder. All parts produced will be programmed with Mastercam.
