CMM Operator Training

How do you train your operators? Any advise is welcome. Don't be a turd.

We have been intermittently slow at work so I have been building basically a curriculum to train new operators (we are expecting to hire people at the beginning of the year).

My "Curriculum" is basically just notes on how to run the CMM, but with some pictures and a few step by step guides. I have used one of my hand mic guys as a path finder/Guiney pig and it seems like every time I get done with a training section there are so many things that I have left out that he immediately stumbles over.

Idk I am pretty good at explaining things in person but putting them down on paper is a bit harder.

  • Those all seem fairly easy. I actually think I ran across a step by step instruction on the forum for calibration that you could almost cut and paste. I was asked to write work instructions for writing inspection programs.

    I would put a disclaimer in every one that says: If you are not sure about something, ask. I have spent hours trying to fix something that someone took a guess on.


    I did! I also put, at the very beginning of each one, to read the entire thing before starting because my inspection guy would ask me questions that I addressed later down the page. The thing that I have battles the most is getting someone to actually read the dang thing before asking 1000 questions.
