MACH38
Module 38: Computer Numerical Control (CNC) 2-Axis Machining (Optional)
Outcome
Investigate basic machining practices on a computer numerical control (CNC) 2-axis lathe.
Indicators
(a) Explore G and M codes relevant to 2-axis lathe work.
(b) Explain multiple repetitive cycles for turning, threading, facing, drilling and grooving.
(c) Explore the use of graphic simulators on machine tools.
(d) Characterize the safety and utility of work holding fixtures (e.g., hydraulic chucks and tailstocks).
(e) Write a program to create a specific workpiece.
(f) Evaluate the effectiveness of a written program through observation of a simulation.
(g) Create a workpiece using a student-created program.
