CNC programming

The two-week CNC Programming internship enables participants to create detailed 3D models using CAD software, develop and optimise machining toolpaths with CAM, and set up and operate CNC machines. Participants manufacture components, troubleshoot machining problems, and complete and present a final CNC project while applying safe working practices.

Course Duration: 2 Weeks
