Computer Numerical Control

Course Content

• Island milling - Using the Rough out
• Contour Geometry and Contour Milling cycles to produce pockets of various shapes, leaving islands within them.
• Using Polar and Incremental commands
• Using circular polar and incremental polar angle together to produce internal and external radii
• Using circular polar and incremental polar to produce PCDs
• Q Definitions - Putting Q definitions into simple equations (i.e.: Q1 = Q1 + Q2) to produce tapers among other uses.
• Rotation - Rotating hole patterns, pockets or profiles.
• Helical milling using CDC and incremental polar commands. For producing bores or screw threads.
