About this course

The CNC Router Design & Operation course is a practical, industry-oriented training program designed to take learners from the fundamentals of CNC router technology to the production of real-world products.

Learners will be trained to:

1. Understand CNC router machines and their components.

2. Create production-ready designs using CorelDRAW.

3. Prepare and clean vector artwork for CNC machining.

4. Create 2D, 2.5D and basic 3D designs using Aspire 10.512.

5. Generate professional CNC toolpaths.

6. Select appropriate cutting tools.

7. Understand feeds, speeds, depth of cut and step-over.

8  Simulate machining operations before cutting.

9. Generate and understand G-code.

10. Set up materials and work holding.

11. Zero and reference a CNC router.

12. Load and execute CNC programs safely.

13. Perform test cuts and production machining.

14. Diagnose common machining and design problems.

15. Produce commercial CNC products.

16. Develop a portfolio of CNC projects.

The course is deliberately project-based, so students do not simply learn software commands they learn how to turn an idea into a physical product.
