Numerical Control Programming - Corning Community College

Numerical Control Programming from Corning Community College is a Campus Certificate Programming degree that prepares you for a IT career. The Numerical Control Programming certificate is designed to prepare students for a position operating or writing coded instructions (programs) for automated computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines. Programming is done both by hand and with the use of PC based automatic programming (MasterCam) software. CNC programs are written in both standard M & G code and conversational formats. Machining experience is acquired through the operation of both CNC machining centers and conventional machine tools, which include two vertical and one horizontal machining centers (two of which are equipped with automatic tool changers), and an array of standard milling, grinding, and turning machines (some of which are equipped with state-of-the-art digital readout systems). Inspection devices used include optical comparators, coordinate measuring machines, digital height gauges, as well as other traditional measuring tools. Graduates of this rigorous and intensive program have the tools necessary to program in both a production and tool-shop environment; generate CNC code by both manual and computer assisted methods; understand the aspects of machine programs, tooling and first-piece inspection, and state-of-the-art software and hardware systems.
