How to machine your first part using the CNC milling machine at SKIL?

The SKIL coaches provide you with two tutorial videos to guide you step by step in creating your first CNC-machined piece.

  • The first video will show you how to design your part and set up your machining on the computer. An essential part of CNC machining (there’s a hint in the name: Computer Numerical Control): CNC - préparer un usinage
  • The second part takes place on the machine. It involves physically preparing the machine for precise and safe machining: CNC - usiner une pièce
  • Important document for you to download is the library of tools available for the CNC at SKIL to prepare your machining on fusion that you can download here

Don't forget that there is a big difference between theory and practice, so once you’ve carefully watched these tutorials, go and speak with the SKIL coaches as soon as possible to complete your machining. It’s not a process that can be done in 10 minutes, so make the most of your opportunity and benefit from your coaches' many years of experience to support you in this adventure.
