What Will I Learn?
Gain practical skills to model and enhance CNC machine stiffness, accuracy, and reliability. Master reference frames, kinematic chains, structural and modal analysis, plus key errors like backlash, thermal drift, and compliance. Use schematics, quantitative assessments, and tests to build, document, and deliver high-performance machines.
