Machine Tool Technology
Machinists are highly skilled operators of machine tools that fabricate parts from a wide variety of materials. Working from blueprints, sketches, or their own designs, these technicians produce precision parts with extremely close tolerances. Machine Tool graduates can find employment with small machine shop operators as well as large manufacturing firms throughout the country.
The Machine Tool Technology program provides training for entry-level jobs as a CNC Machinist, CNC Programmer, Manual Machinist, or Quality Control and Inspection Specialist. Students will learn to machine parts operate lathes, mills, drill presses, surface grinders and CNC controllers. They will also learn related skills in math, use of precision measuring tools, blueprint reading and mechanical inspection methods.
