Mill 3D Class Overview
This 2-day hands on course is delivered live in one of the QTE training facilities or virtual. The focus is on the proper selection and parameter definition of the different 3D toolpaths. Focus is on 3D geometry preparation, manipulation and creation of 3D toolpaths. Students of Mastercam or Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS may attend this class.
Pre-requisite: Mastercam Mill 2D training class
MASTERCAM MULTI-AXIS
Multi-Axis Class Overview
This 2-day hands on course is designed to provide the fundamental knowledge necessary to use Mastercam 4 & 5 Axis toolpaths. Students are expected to have strong working knowledge of Mill 2D and 3D programming to expand their skills into 5 axis programming. We will work through examples and discuss 5 axis programming theory and the various applications. Discussion and demonstrations of when to use different parameters and toolpaths is a main focus.
MASTERCAM LATHE
Lathe Class Overview
This is a 2-day hands on course designed to provide the fundamental knowledge necessary to use Mastercam Lathe efficiently. Focus is on manipulation of geometry and generation of Lathe toolpaths. This class picks up from where the Mill 2D Machining class stops, which is where we cover the Mastercam interface, toolpath basics, modeling/geometry tools, and general machining parameters.
MASTERCAM ADVANCED LATHE
Advanced Lathe Class Overview
This on demand web-based course is designed to provide the advanced knowledge necessary to use Mastercam Lathe efficiently. You will have access to prerecorded video that focuses on manipulation of geometry and generation of advanced Lathe toolpaths. C and Y axis programming, Layouts, Planes, Mill-Turn (Single Stream) and more. This class picks up from where the Lathe Machining class stops, which is where we cover the Mastercam interface, lathe toolpath basics, modeling/geometry tools, and general machining parameters.
MASTERCAM WIRE
Wire Class Overview
This 1-day hands on course is designed to provide the fundamental knowledge necessary to use Mastercam Wire efficiently. Focus is on manipulation of geometry and generation of Wire EDM toolpaths including 4-axis and taper toolpaths. Students are expected to be knowledgeable of wire machining principles and be comfortable with the Mastercam interface.
VERISURF INSPECTION
Verisurf Inspection Class Overview
This 2-day hands on course is designed to provide the core training to utilize the 3 step inspection process of Align, Inspect, Report within Verisurf. Participants will be led by live instruction and complete exercises to solidify the concepts taught. Participants are given opportunities to inspect their own parts or utilize our sample parts within the exercises. Classes are scheduled on a per company basis due the nature of inspection and the related equipment necessary for properly training students. We strongly recommend limiting two participates to an inspection device to provide adequate time for the lab exercises.
A one day add-on course is available for the Verisurf Reverse engineering module. Please contact us for more details
