Focus on the WorkForce The lab features top-of-the-line ma-
chining equipment: the 14 ProtoTRAKs and a Feeler VMC with a Fanuc control from Methods Machine Tools, are great launching pads for student co-ops. Kenny Curran, a 2013 graduate
candidate, is pleased with how the new Manufacturing Center’s equipment prepared him for his co-op. “I had a great co-op with GE Aviation over the summer,” said Curran, who worked with a Fanuc-controlled machine at GE, the same type of machine that he learned to use in the Manufacturing Center. “Having that machine is really going to expose students to the exact same type of controller they are going to see in production.”
Wentworth students set up a machine for a new assignment.
