Hello, my name is "Jordan"! Interested in learning how to operate CNC Machines

[JordanMoseley95]

Hello everybody,

My name is Jordan Moseley and currently my CNC knowledge is minimal, I have never operated one but I want to gain the skills to be able to.

I work for an Automotive company that produces parts for many very large motor vehicle companies.
Recently, our company has invested in CNC Machines, the particular one uses Sinumeric 828D, thus I have found resources for that:

Turning

SinuTrain Turning made easy with ShopTurn
http://www.automation.siemens.com/doconweb/pdf/SINUMERIK_SINAMICS_02_2012_E/TUST.pdf?p=1

But, are there any other resources that I should read first.

Whenever I am sufficiently trained, I will be supervised by a trained operator for safety.

I do have an Engineering Diploma that I earned during my GCSEs, so I have some experience, even if little.

Thanks to all, good to be here.

Jordan
