About the Course
Subtractive Manufacturing builds upon concepts introduced in the Rapid Prototyping course course, shifting the focus from additive to precision subtractive manufacturing. This course explores high-speed machining techniques, including CNC milling, laser cutting, and plasma cutting. Students will learn to program and operate a 3-axis CNC mill, optimizing feeds, speeds, tooling, and fixturing for efficient material removal. Hands-on training with CAM software and simulation tools will prepare students for real-world machining challenges. By the end of the course, students will have designed, programmed, and machined their own functional prototypes.
After meeting the DF-2100 prerequisite, please enroll through YES.
