Machining

These are examples of training that can be customized to meet your training needs.  As you can see we offer everything from Manual to High Speed Machining to meet your needs.  We will meet with you to discuss your specific needs and develop the training to meet these needs.  The course length will depend on your particular needs.  We can also combine parts of course descriptions to build a new course for you.  

Manual or Basic Machining
This training includes the concepts, principles and skills required in the operation and application of the metal lathe, milling machine, surface grinder, drill press and various bench tools.  The student will be able to demonstrate knowledge and skill competencies in machine safety, machine set up, machine operations and capabilities, use of various accessories and attachments and machine maintenance.  Students will machine parts to specifications.

CNC Machining – CNC Lathe or CNC Mill
This training includes the concepts, principles, and skills required in the operation and application of the CNC Lathe or CNC Mill.  The student will be able to demonstrate knowledge and skill competencies in machine safety, machine set up, programming, machine operations and capabilities, use of various accessories and attachments, and machine maintenance.  Students will learn to machine parts to specifications.

EDM Training
This training covers the fundamentals of the EDM process consisting of consist of practical EDM machine applications. A basic understanding of machining processes and blueprint reading are required to prior to this training.

Advanced EDM
This training will include instruction at a more advanced level of machining knowledge, skills and competencies.  It is a combination of direct and hands-on instruction and practice to include CNC operations, operating a 4-axis wire EDM and CNC programming. Students will produce programming and parts to specification


CNC/Machinist Program @ EIT

Diploma Program -- 50 Credits -- 1200 class hours

CNC machines have radically changed the manufacturing industry. Curves are as easy to cut as straight lines, complex 3-D structures are relatively easy to produce, and the number of steps that require human action have been considerably reduced.

Get your hands on drill presses, mills, lathes, and grinders, then advance to CNC milling and CNC turning.  You will learn to efficiently set up and run CNC machines.  Be capable of controlling the 3 axes of lathes and mills through Computer Numerical Control programs.  Problem solving skills, troubleshooting techniques and use of engineering materials and processes learned at EIT will enable you to take your place in tomorrow’s industry.

Evening classes may be available. Get more information >>>

Manufacturing Technician Program @ EIT

Diploma Program -- 66 Credits -- 1500 class hours

It’s almost like something out of a science fiction movie … place a chunk of metal in a machine, push some buttons, then remove a finished manufactured piece!  The growing availability and use of technology, such as computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing continues to increase the need for trained technicians in manufacturing.

Begin your training with the basics of metalworking in a real-life manufacturing environment, then move ahead into advanced industrial production technologies, computer-aided design (CAD), and computer-aided machining (CAM), as well as the programming and operation of computer numerical controlled machines (CNC).
