CNC Programming (Using CNC Simulator Pro)
This course teaches you the fundamentals of CNC programming using CNC Simulator Pro. You begin with the basics of CNC machines, their history, types, and the role of G-codes and M-codes in machining. You will learn how CNC programs control cutting tools, coordinate movements, and perform machining operations.
You will then move into CNC Simulator Pro, where you learn installation, interface navigation, simulation controls, pause points, creating commands, adding materials, zero points, and working with both milling and lathe environments. The simulator helps you practice CNC programming safely and visually.

What to expect from this course
You will learn what CNC machines are, how they evolved, types of CNC machines, and the importance of G-codes and M-codes in machining. You will understand how CNC programs control tool paths and operations.
You will learn CNC Simulator Pro, including installation, interface controls, simulation buttons, speed adjustments, pause points, CNC editor usage, commands, zero points, adding materials, inventory browser, and mill/lathe workpieces.
You will study the basics of G-code through structured lessons and run your first CNC simulations. You will learn feed, speed, coordinates, movements, and safe programming practices.
You will understand M-codes, machine commands, spindle functions, coolant control, and how M-codes interact with G-codes for complete machining cycles.
You will complete practical exercises on both G-code and M-code through multiple guided tasks to build confidence and real programming capability.
You will explore advanced G-codes and M-codes, including deeper control functions, advanced movements, and machine operations found in professional CNC programs.
Finally, you will work on practical CNC applications using multiple components, simulate machining programs, and understand real manufacturing workflows.
