Advanced CAD/CAM Strategies for the Future of Manufacturing

(MASTERCLASS IN EMERGING MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES)


Advanced CADCAM Strategies for the Future of Manufacturing

Introduction

This masterclass is designed to provide advanced knowledge in Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) to help you effectively tackle complex machining challenges. With a hands-on, practical approach, the masterclass will enhance your programming skills, enable you to master sophisticated toolpath creation, and teach you to apply industry-leading techniques to optimise production processes. Ideal for professionals with a foundational understanding of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining, this course will guide you through real-world applications, ensuring you are well-equipped to make a significant impact in the manufacturing sector.

Why This Masterclass

This programme is designed for professionals who want to enhance their CAM programming skills. Throughout the masterclass, you will participate in hands-on workshops, attend expert-led lectures, and engage in interactive Q&A sessions. You will explore advanced features and techniques of CAM software, tackle real-world challenges through practical exercises, and analyse case studies focused on manufacturing solutions. By the end of the masterclass, you will be equipped to create optimised and intricate toolpaths for 2.5D, 3D, and 5-axis applications, significantly increasing your machining efficiency and productivity.
