This course will introduce the CNC machine tool's machining application technology. Fundamental functional modules will be introduced at the beginning; these include a CNC controller, operation panel, linear and rotational axes, tools, fixtures, machining processes, and roles of a CAD/CAM system, cutting simulation and learning system, virtual reality technology, networking, and monitoring, etc. Existing and potential value-adding functions, methodologies, and modules will also be introduced. Students could learn the scope of an industrial machine tool application-centric overview to inspire their creative talent for future innovations.
