MACHINE IT · SOLIDCAM + SOLIDWORKS · EDUCATION
Take Students From CAD
to CNC Manufacturing.
Designing the component is only part of the journey. Give students the opportunity to learn how that design becomes something a CNC machine can actually manufacture.
SolidCAM integrates directly within SOLIDWORKS, allowing students to take their CAD models into a CAM environment where they can develop machining strategies and create CNC-ready toolpaths - connecting digital design with real-world manufacturing.
Design It. Program It. Machine It.
Learn CAD + CAM Together
Connect design and manufacturing within the familiar SOLIDWORKS environment, helping students understand how decisions made in CAD influence the way a component will ultimately be manufactured.
CNC Milling
Introduce students to the principles of CNC milling and teach them how digital designs are translated into machining strategies and toolpaths.
CNC Turning
Explore turning workflows and give students practical experience of programming machining operations from their CAD models.
Advanced Machining
Take learning further with more sophisticated multi-axis and mill-turn workflows - developing skills relevant to modern precision engineering and manufacturing.
From Digital Design to Manufactured Part.
A CAD model defines the part. CAM teaches students how it can be made.
SolidCAM connects digital design with CNC manufacturing, giving students the opportunity to understand the complete process of turning a CAD model into the toolpaths and machining operations required to manufacture a physical component.
It's a practical connection between design, engineering, programming and manufacturing - and an opportunity to develop skills directly relevant to modern industry.
Design it → Program it → Machine it.
SOLIDCAM + SOLIDWORKS
