CMM Operator Training

LaserJay
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.

  • This is basically what my shop would like to have as well. I have told them the same thing but I didn't see any harm in at least doing a few of the operator functions. Right now I have 10 "modules".
    Some of them are just lists and some are a bit more detailed. I think the longest one is 3 pages in word.

    File Locations.
    Machine Operation (power on, jog box).
    Navigating PCDMIS.
    Filling out header information (I have a form that they fill out).
    Building probes (how to measure a probe, probe rack settings).
    Calibration.
    Machine setup.
    Execute program (manual hits and read points).
    Read CMM data (diagnose issues).
    Output CMM data (Excel settings).

    The only other thing I can think to add is Troubleshooting. How to manually move the probe from an interrupted hit. How to make sure you didn't do any real damage. How to clean the styli without messing things up. How to clear an E-stop if you bump into it. Stuff like that.
