CNC

The one-week CNC internship enables participants to interpret engineering drawings, define machining parameters, create and optimise CNC programs, and design parts using CAD/CAM software. Participants simulate machining processes, generate G-code, operate CNC machines to manufacture custom components, and identify production faults while applying safe working practices.

Course Duration: 1 Week
