    CNC Machining Certification Exam Guide

    Ken Evans

    CNC Machining Certification Exam Guide is focused on providing the knowledge base required for obtaining certification, credentialing and/or job preparation in CNC Machining with CNC Mills and Lathes. It covers foundational skills that all those seeking employment as a CNC Operator/Machinist must possess. Managers responsible for workforce development in manufacturing facilities will use the book as a guide for on-the-job employee training and apprenticeships.   The work can be used as a curriculum component for technical schools and colleges for students preparing for certification and credentialing exams based on the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS) Machining Level I standards for: CNC Mill Programming and Setup and Operations, and CNC Lathe Programming and Setup and Operations. At a time when the CNC market is experiencing a shortfall of skilled, qualified workers, this Exam Guide is the perfect resource.  FeaturesPresents CNC Programming with G-Code so users can execute their programs with confidence.Focuses on the creation of CNC programs using Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM).Written with the end goals of certification, credentialing and job readiness in mind.Practice study questions mimic those presented on credentialing exams and practice exercises prepare readers for the required practical activities.An affiliated website (www.CNCCertification.com) contains additional certification questions and answers, as well as suggested additional exercises.

    Student Workbook for Programming of CNC Machines

    Ken Evans

    Written by an author with many years of experience teaching CNC machining, this workbook is the perfect complement to Programming of CNC Machines, 4thedition. It is filled with many practical exercises and is one of the few workbooks available that tests users through the application of programming functions commonly used in CNC programming. Together with its companion text, this workbook can be used as a complete CNC training program; or, it can be used on its own by students or professionals to verify that they have the basic skills needed to write a CNC program.

    Programming of CNC Machines

    Ken Evans

    Written in a simple, easy-to-understand language by a skilled programmer with many years of experience teaching CNC machining to industry and in the classroom, this new edition offers a new chapter on feature-based Machining using Siemens, plus a new chapter featuring Fanuc NC guide I programming. It provides full descriptions of many operation and programming functions and illustrates their practical applications through examples. It provides in-depth information on how to program turning and milling machines, which is applicable to almost all control systems. It keeps all theoretical explanations to a minimum throughout so that they do not distort an understanding of the programming. And because of the wide range of information available about the selection of tools, cutting speeds, and the technology of machining, it is sure to benefit engineers, programmers, supervisors, and machine operators who need ready access to information that will solve CNC operation and programming problems.
