Depending on your age and experience you will attend college for two days a week and start in our assembly area where you will learn how the machined items fit together as well as getting a good background knowledge for the type of engineering that we do here. While at college you will be shown how to operate the manual machines and then move on to use the CNC machines at college as well as Newcom, where most of our precision machined components are made.
