Machining center programming, setup, and operation
Fifteen hours, thirty minutes of presentation on ten video tapes!
10 video tapes (15.5 hours of presentation), 329 page manual, and workbook
(answer book and facilitator's manual not shown)
We use our proven key concepts approach to
keep a light at the end of the tunnel for entry level students. We use high
quality computer-generated graphics and animations to hold the student's
attention. We provide excellent written documentation to reinforce
presentations. There is a practice exercise to do after completing each of the
twenty-four lessons. And the course is
presented by industry-expert Mike
Lynch. Truly, we've kept intact the structure, method, and content that
make our video courses so effective.
But this new version of Machining Center Programming and Operation has been
dramatically improved from the previous edition. Here's how!
This manual explains how you can use the video course to its best advantage
based on your own company's needs. It includes course inventory list,
explanation of the key concepts approach, lesson structure, other
considerations related to how the course can be used. This manual also includes
the Time Outline, tracking forms for grading student's progress, and order
forms for additional course materials.
Expanded discussions of basic machining practice
This new course includes the Min-Vid "Machining Operations performed
on machining centers". This acquaints newcomers to the shop environment
with what CNC machining centers can do. There's also an expanded discussion of
machining operations in the student manual.
Better method for grading exercises
We now use a point-system to help you gage a student's progress. A workbook
and answer book is provided containing all of the exercises, including several
that require programs to be written.
More alternatives
Though we still stress safe and proven methods, we expand discussions in
areas having to do with efficiency. Not only do we show the easy way to handle
a given problem, we show the most efficient way.
Expanded description of setup and operator responsibilities
More analogies and visuals
To keep even complex topics simple to understand
Here's what you get:
This comprehensive 15.5 hour course (the previous version of this course was
13 hours) for Fanuc controlled machining centers uses our proven key concepts
approach to teach CNC beginners the programming and operation of CNC machining
centers as quickly and easily as possible. It consists of
24 easy-to-follow lessons averaging about 35
minutes each. Each lesson is comprised entirely of computer generated graphics
and animations with expert narration, making it easy for students to follow
presentations and maintain concentration. After each lesson, the student is
asked to do a practice exercise to confirm comprehension and retention. A full
set of answers is also provided.
The course includes ten (10) video tapes, including our Mini-Vids for
Machining Operations Performed On Machining Centers and Rotary Device
Programming, a tutorial programming manual, a set of operation handbooks for
all Fanuc controls covered by the course, and a time outline that describes
what is presented in the course - minute by minute. A facilitator's manual is
provided to show you how to administer the course, and provides help for
tracking student's progress. You also get free access to our technical
newsletter, The Optional Stop, with
every video course purchase. Additionally, for students with questions or
problems, we offer free phone/email assistance. This is truly a complete
training package that can be used over and over again!
