MACH1511

This course will address the advanced operations and setups of milling machines, lathe and surface grinders. Machine safety and machine component identification are also a part of the components listed above. The student will perform part layout, as well as slot and pocket milling, taper turning, boring, drilling and grinding projects. The student will become familiar with advanced setup and operations on the lathe, milling machine, drill press and grinding machines. The student will also learn the care and use of different tooling used in the lathe, milling machines, and surface grinders.Student Learning Outcomes
