ADVANCED TRAINING PROGRAMS <br />CNC Machining (144 hour) <br />Program Scope and Objectives <br />This introductory class to CNC (computer numerically controlled) machining is designed <br />for experienced machinists and machine operators, who need or want to update <br />their skills in CNC operations, setups, and programming. Students learn to program, <br />setup, and operate CNC lathes and mills. They are taught programming commands <br />(machine commands and addresses), sequence of operations in CNC machining and <br />programming, and data transfer from computer to CNC machine. Students also learn <br />the fundamental use of a computer -aided manufacturing (CAM) system. Instruction <br />time is divided between classroom, computer lab, and shop, providing an unusual blend <br />of practical theory and hands-on experience. Upon graduation, students are able to <br />perform setups of moderate complexity in CNC machining and turning centers. CNC <br />graduates may find beginning to intermediate -level work in the machining trade as a <br />CNC machinist. <br />Program Hours - Program Sequence <br />44 hours lecture +100 hours lab =144 hours. <br />Program Length <br />Classes are 8 hours on Saturdays for 18 weeks, a total of 144 hours of training or <br />4.5 hours two nights per week for 16 weeks, a total of 144 hours of training. <br />ETP Requirements <br />Students enrolling through the ETP state funded classes must meet the following <br />criteria: <br />• Must be employed full-time for a minimum of 90 days, working a minimum of 35 <br />hours per week in the machinist trade. <br />• Must earn a minimum wage rate per hour required by ETP. <br />• Students' employers must fill out and sign a Certification Statement (CS) and <br />Retraining Enrollment Agreement form. <br />• Must have basic knowledge of shop mathematics and blue print reading and able to <br />read and write in English. <br />Class Size <br />Maximum 20 trainees <br />Estimated Schedule of Total Charges for the Entire Educational Program <br />Tuition for the program is charged for a 16 or 18 week time period. <br />Registration information: Santa Fe Springs (Main Campus) 562.921.3722 - Visit our Web site: www,trainingeenters.org 11 <br />
