Manufacturing Technology
In the Manufacturing Technology program you will develop the skills and knowledge necessary for gaining an entry-level position in the precision metal machining industry.  You learn about the  proper and safe use of various machines and will become familiar with basic setups and various machining operations.  You will begin to become involved with computers and the role they play in controlling machine operations and productivity.
The Center is also an approved site for Project Lead the Way pre-engineering courses.  Students may elect to take Introduction to Engineering Design and/or Principles of Engineering at the Huot Technical Center or the home school to gain knowledge and skills that are related to pre-engineering concepts.  Computer-aided drafting and design, and computer aided manufacturing will be taught in that curriculum.
Advanced students will use computer workstations to learn basic design of parts to be machined, geometric tolerances, and preparation of CNC codes for translation into precision machining operations.  This is an excellent option for students interested in engineering and manufacturing design.   The program articulates with the New Hampshire Community Technical College system and Central Maine Community College.
