The TeDPro Lab (Technology Design and Prototyping Center) of Eulogio “Amang” Rodriguez Institute of Science and Technology (EARIST) conducted a two-day specialized seminar on computer-controlled manufacturing technologies. The first day focused on CNC Milling Machine operations, while the second day featured CNC 4-Axis Router applications. The activity was conducted at the TeDPro Lab, Ground Floor CEAFA Building, EARIST, Nagtahan, Sampaloc, Manila, with Mr. Marvin Ocampo as the resource speaker. The seminar introduced participants to modern computer-controlled machining technologies and provided opportunities to develop technical competencies applicable to manufacturing, engineering, digital fabrication, and prototyping.
Activity Goal:
To strengthen participants’ knowledge and practical skills in CNC milling and 4-axis routing, promote familiarity with computer-controlled manufacturing technologies, and develop technical competencies that support innovation, digital fabrication, prototyping, employment, and entrepreneurship.
