In this course, you're introduced to blueprint reading, CAM setup, machine safety, and operation, and inspection. This course focuses on the steps throughout the process of digital manufacturing to lay a foundation to build upon. You apply this knowledge and review a blueprint for a CAD model for manufacture, setup digital manufacturing, prepare a vertical CNC mill for operation, machine and inspect a part.

After completing this course, you’ll be able to:

• Identify parts of a blueprint.
• Identify GD&T symbols and datums.
• Create a CAM setup for manufacturing.
• Understand machine safety best practices.
• Set up a VMC for use including indicating a vise and setting up tooling.
• Operate a CNC mill.
• Inspect a machined part.
