ELECTIVE

ELIGIBILITY:  11, 12

PREREQUISITE:  Machine Tool Technology

CREDIT:  2

This class is designed for students who desire to further advance their machine tooling skills. Students
will have the opportunity to use state-of-the-art lathes and milling machines, as well as controlling
milling and turning machines, referred to as Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines. Students
will continue to read blueprints, use the latest version of Virtual Gibbs CAD/CAM software, use
measuring instruments such as calipers and micrometers, and apply mathematical concepts as they do
production projects that simulate industry. Students participate in SkillsUSA to demonstrate their skills
and leadership. Articulation credits with SD technical schools are available.
