Programación CNC

A 90-minute, 4-round basic Express simulation for Spanish vocational training (Formacion Profesional), Fabricacion Mecanica family: module 0002 Mecanizado por control numerico (Tecnico en Mecanizado, Real Decreto 1398/2007; Tecnico Superior en Programacion de la Produccion en Fabricacion Mecanica, Real Decreto 1687/2007).

The learner is a newly qualified CNC machinist given her first order to program in ISO code and prove out alone on a three-axis machining centre of a fictional subcontract machining shop in a fictional town of Gipuzkoa: sixty aluminium plates before Friday's truck.

Eight decisions over four rounds: how the part origin is taken, how the program is prepared, how the tool offsets are set, where the cutting data come from, whether and how the program is simulated, how the first run on the machine is made, how the first piece is checked and how the series is watched.

Scored on good pieces delivered on the date, machine hours, pieces rejected and collisions and broken tools; two tempting choices hide their cost until the machine moves, and two critical errors (the first run with the door interlock bridged, the first-piece record signed without measuring) cap the round. Lesson: the simulation finds the collision that on the machine would break the tool. Training level only.

Spanish primary, English parity. All companies, towns and people are fictional.

Una simulación introductoria que no requiere conocimientos previos de la materia, pensada para asignaturas de grado. También funciona en formación profesional, bachillerato y sesiones de onboarding.
