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.

  • Where I currently am, we have a very small product library, and have massive volume. I am basically the only person who programs. All other folks touching the CMM's only need to know enough to find the routine on the hard drive, open it, load parts onto fixture, place on color-coded magnetic fixture posts, and hit execute.

    I have one WKI, that's BASIC CMM Operations:
    how to power on/off.
    how to make sure machine is active,
    what each button does on jogbox,
    how to recover from a stall/crash,
    how to clean/tighten probe and make sure probe is active,
    How to calibrate probe after a crash,
    how to find and execute routines

    I make sure I cover all of the command input options (keyboard (ex :CTL+Q starts a routine), visual buttons on screen (the triangle execute button), and optional jogbox or file menu method, so at least one way sticks.
