Computerized Manufacturing and Robotics Training
WHAT IS COMPUTERIZED MANUFACTURING? Computer controlled machines create the vast majority of consumer products, from cars and boats, to toothbrushes and electronic devices. Examples of sophisticated computer controlled machines utilized in computerized manufacturing include Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Mills and Lathes, Robots, Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM), 3D Printers, and Laser Machines, among others. The demand for programmers and operators of Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) and robotic equipment is strong today and is expected to grow.
