What will I learn?
This CNC Lathe Programmer Course equips you with hands-on skills to plan machine setups, interpret technical drawings, and develop safe, efficient Fanuc-style G-code for 2-axis lathes. You will master tooling choices, cutting parameters, canned cycles for roughing and finishing passes, plus optimisation techniques via simulation and dry runs. This focused programme reduces setup errors, enhances part finish quality, and shortens production cycles confidently in the workshop.
Elevify advantages
