CNC Machining Technology Program
The CNC Machining Technology Program is your fast track to becoming a CNC operator
and/or CNC programmer. You will learn principles of machining, setup, processing,
part inspection, and standard shop practices - the skills you need to program and
operate complex metal working machines such as CNC mills, and lathes.
Partial scholarships are available. Call 501-760-4223 to learn more!

5 sessions, 40 hoursW-F
8 AM TO 4:30 PM
You will learn basic programming, maintenance and troubleshooting PLC based industrial
controls using PLC trainers with Allen Bradley/ Rockwell Automation Control-Logix
hardware and Allen Bradley/Rockwell Automation RSLogix 5000 and RSLinx software. This
will allow you to benefit from vendor training on specific equipment. The central
processing unit is an L32E. The basic operating principles of all PLCs, their inputs
and outputs (discrete and analog), programming, maintenance, and networking will be
covered. You must have work experience as a maintenance technician or electrician.
