This program is offered at both the El Reno and Chickasha campuses.
The Manufacturing and Machining program at CVTech prepares students for a career in the machining field. Students learn blueprint reading, math, measuring tools, and setup and operation of manual machine tools such as lathes, grinding machines, mills during their first two years as a high school student. Students may return as an adult to learn CNC machining where they will set up, operate, and write programs for CNC mills and lathes and complete an introduction to CADD.

For Information
I signed up for Precision Machining because I really wanted to create things. I liked learning to use state-of-the-art machinery to make everything from hammers to car parts. I didn't understand how much the skills I learned in PMT would help me on my ASVAB when I decided to join the Air Force.
