| (a) General requirements. This course is recommended
for students in Grades 11 and 12. Prerequisite: Precision Metal Manufacturing
I. Recommended corequisite: Precision Metal Manufacturing II Lab.
Students shall be awarded two credits for successful completion of
this course.
(b) Introduction.
(1) Career and technical education instruction provides
content aligned with challenging academic standards and relevant technical
knowledge and skills for students to further their education and succeed
in current or emerging professions.
(2) The Manufacturing Career Cluster focuses on planning,
managing, and performing the processing of materials into intermediate
or final products and related professional and technical support
activities such as production planning and control, maintenance, and
manufacturing/process engineering.
(3) Precision Metal Manufacturing II will provide students
the knowledge, skills, and technologies required for employment in
precision machining. While this course is designed to provide necessary
skills in machining, it also provides a real-world foundation for
any engineering discipline. This course addresses a variety of materials
such as plastics, ceramics, and wood in addition to metal. Students
will develop knowledge of the concepts and skills related to these
systems to apply them to personal and career development. This course
supports integration of academic and technical knowledge and skills.
Students will have opportunities to reinforce, apply, and transfer
knowledge and skills to a variety of settings and problems. Knowledge
about career opportunities, requirements, and expectations and the
development of workplace skills prepare students for success. This
course is designed to provide entry-level employment for the student
or articulated credit integration into a community college and dual
credit with a community college with completion of the advanced course.
(4) Students are encouraged to participate in extended
learning experiences such as career and technical student organizations
and other leadership or extracurricular organizations.
(5) Statements that contain the word "including" reference
content that must be mastered, while those containing the phrase
"such as" are intended as possible illustrative examples.

Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS) Level 1 turning, chucking,
or turning between centers part with zero defects (100% to the print)
in a safe manner; and
(B) develop a detailed milling part such as the NIMS
Level 1 milling part with zero defects (100% to the print) in a safe
manner.
(5) The student learns about standard computer numerical
control (CNC) machinery. The student is expected to:
(A) research the history of numerical control machines;
(B) distinguish among different types of CNC machines
used in the industry;
(C) demonstrate safety rules for CNC operation;
(D) demonstrate the methods by which programs can be
entered into a controller; and
(E) use appropriate machining terminology to enhance

the development and implementation of those systems. The student is
expected to:
(A) examine the types of drive motors used on CNC machinery;
(B) explain the Cartesian coordinate system;
(C) differentiate between absolute and incremental
positioning; and
(D) illustrate the difference between datum and delta
dimensioning.
(7) The student learns the process planning and tool
selection within a CNC lab environment. The student is expected to:
