How do they match: Computer Numerically Controlled Tool Programmers

  • Determine reference points, machine cutting paths, or hole locations, and compute angular and linear dimensions, radii, and curvatures.
  • Observe machines on trial runs or conduct computer simulations to ensure that programs and machinery will function properly and produce items that meet specifications.

  • Calculate dimensions of workpieces, products, or equipment.
  • Conduct test runs of production equipment.
  • Create diagrams or blueprints for workpieces or products.
  • Determine production equipment settings.
  • Draw guide lines or markings on materials or workpieces using patterns or other references.
  • Mount materials or workpieces onto production equipment.
  • Plan production or operational procedures or sequences.
  • Program equipment to perform production tasks.
  • Select production equipment according to product specifications.
