Machining Technology (MT) is designed to provide each student with the latest technological
skills needed for entry in the metalworking occupations. Students have the opportunity to
operate state-of-the-art equipment, such as the Computer Numeric Controlled (CNC) machine.
They also gain experience with the hands-on operation of standard machine tools
used in the industry such as: drill presses, metal saws, lathes, milling machines and surface
grinders. Related theory acquaints students with metal cutting applications, material properties,
layout work, and construction and assembly of machinery. The application of mathematics
and blueprint reading is also emphasized throughout the course as an integral part of
all completed projects and competencies.
