71B NUMERICAL CONTROL PROGRAMMING II                   4UNITS (May be repeated 3 times)

Continuation of Machine Tool Technology 71A. Advanced programming of three-axis computer numerical controlled drilling and milling machines and basic programming and operation of numerical controlled lathes. Includes advanced contour milling, thread milling, sub programming, and automatic tool setters.  Basic 2 axis and live tooling lathe programming involving constant surface speeds, tool selection, work surface programming, internal and external turning, threading, C axis milling, and sub spindle operation. Prerequisite: Machine Tool Technology 71A. 2 hours lecture, 6 hours laboratory. Transfer: CSU

In this class each student will set fixture offsets, set tool length offsets, create G code NC programs, and fabricate parts on numerically controlled vertical milling machines, 2 axis lathes, and live tooling C axis lathes with sub spindle operation..  All the necessary math and calculation methods will be covered.
