Precision Grinding

The course is designed to provide the student with learning experiences in the theoretical and the practical skills development in precision grinding operations. The students will machine parts and use a surface grinder to apply various surface and form grinding techniques to make metal parts to blueprint specifications. The fundamental theory of centerless grinding and ID/OD grinding will also be covered in this course. Students will complete instructional activities to prepare them for obtaining a credential from the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS) in Grinding.
