In chapter 2 lesson 4, we step into the role of a CNC programmer and walk through what it takes to machine our class project on a three axis mill.
We’ll go through the full programming workflow, including planning the order of operations, selecting tools, and creating multiple setups to access different features of the part. From drilling and tapping to roughing, finishing, and part flipping, you’ll see how material is removed step by step and how each decision impacts the final result. We’ll also use simulation to catch issues like collisions and better understand how the machine executes the program.
