Attendees will learn how to do basic CNC operations and think like a machinist. Details will be given for the operation of the Hacksburg CNC gantry router, generously donated by Onefinity and Torc Robotics, and we will show the machining of a demo part. Feel free to attend only this first part.If you intend on getting CNC trained as a Hacksburg member, we will schedule a time to hold Part 2, where I will teach the CAM programming on the computer and give you remote access to our CAM computer. You will then receive a homework assignment, in the form of a STEP file that you will generate a machining plan and gcode for. You will then execute the plan, with me or another Hacksburg member, to confirm your ability to do CAM programming and CNC machining.
The class is free for Hacksburg members and $5 for non-members. This class is for attendees age 16 and up. If you are bringing an attendee under 18, you (the parent/guardian) must stay for the entire duration of the class and approve all shop tool use.
