Advanced Automation / Multi-Axis CNC - Southwestern Illinois College

055H

Technical Education Precision Machining

Combine Robots and Humans to get Things Done.

This curriculum focuses on the integration of robots with multi-axis CNC machining that allows technicians and employers to become more productive using automated manufacturing practices.

The courses that comprise the certificate are primarily hands-on and allow students to use equipment and software of the type and variety that many modern manufacturing facilities have adopted.

Students will learn how to operate and manipulate robots while producing finished parts as they would in a manufacturing facility. Students will also practice virtual setups, fixturing and simultaneous multi-axis machining of complex parts.

Current or former students and working technicians who desire to upgrade their skills to include robotic or automated manufacturing may enroll in the courses that lead to a certificate in Advanced Automation/Multi-Axis CNC Certificate.
