ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø

American manufacturing is experiencing a renaissance. Computer-aided machining and manufacturing has become the mainstream in manufacturing, and the machines of the US-based company, Haas Automation, are leading the way. Haas produces a wide range of advanced CNC manufacturing machinery, and they have partnered with ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø Tech’s Mahwah campus to create a training center that teaches individuals the art and science of advanced manufacturing. The program includes a segment on robotics, and how those devices interact seamlessly with certain Haas machinery.

Any ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø Tech student who dedicates themselves to this program is making a valuable investment in their marketable skills. This particular program is comprised of nine machining and manufacturing courses, plus two courses introducing the student to robotics in the workplace.

Advanced ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø Skills Obtained

The Advanced ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø with Robotics program starts with learning how to read blueprints and taking precise measurements. The learning experience builds on this and turns the student into a machinist with solid fundamental skills and knowledge. This training is augmented with RoboDK simulation software, which is used for offline programming of industrial robots.

Employment Opportunities for Machinists

The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that employment opportunities are projected to remain steady for at least the next eight years. The US production industry currently employs slightly over 1 million individuals covering all types of Machinists and Tool and Die makers². Advanced machining techniques such as CNC are in high demand, and the combined area of New York/New Jersey projects over 6,400 job openings by 2030³.
