CAD/CAM Training

CAD/CAM Training & Implementation for Companies – NX, TrueTops, SolidCAM, Radan

CAD/CAM training and implementation for companies is a practical solution for manufacturers looking to improve the skills of their engineers, CNC programmers, production technologists and machine operators.

We provide CAD/CAM training, CNC programming training and technology implementation for companies using NX, SolidCAM, Radan and TrueTops. Training is tailored to the company’s actual production processes, machinery, manufacturing technologies and employees’ level of experience.

Our CAD/CAM training for companies focuses not only on software operation, but primarily on its effective use in real-world manufacturing. We work with practical examples, actual components, models and technological problems encountered in production.

This means that training can combine CAD/CAM software implementation, technical training and production process optimisation.

CAD/CAM Training Tailored to Your Production

Every company uses CAD/CAM software differently. That is why we tailor the training programme to the type of production, available machinery, manufacturing technologies and employees’ experience.

Our training can be designed for:

  • production technologists,
  • CNC programmers,
  • CNC machine operators,
  • design engineers,
  • manufacturing engineers,
  • production engineers,
  • technology departments,
  • employees responsible for CAD/CAM implementation.

Training can be provided from beginner level through to advanced CAD/CAM programming, depending on the needs of your team.

NX and SolidCAM – CNC Programming Training

Our NX and SolidCAM training covers CNC programming and manufacturing process preparation.

Training can include:

  • CNC machining process planning,
  • 3-, 4- and 5-axis machining,
  • NC programme generation,
  • toolpath creation and optimisation,
  • machining strategy selection,
  • cutting parameter selection,
  • cycle time optimisation,
  • machining of complex components,
  • CNC programme preparation for specific machine controls,
  • machining simulation,
  • collision detection and analysis,
  • optimisation of existing CNC programmes.

NX Training and Implementation

NX training for companies can cover CAM programming as well as manufacturing process preparation for specific CNC machines.

As part of the implementation, we analyse the company’s current workflow and help configure the NX environment so that the software can be used effectively in real production.

SolidCAM Training and CNC Programming

SolidCAM training for companies focuses on practical CNC programming and manufacturing technology.

The training programme can be adapted to the type of CNC machines, cutting tools, materials and components manufactured by your company.

Radan and TrueTops – Sheet Metal CAD/CAM Training

We also provide CAD/CAM training for sheet metal manufacturers, covering laser cutting, CNC punching and sheet metal processing.

Radan Training and Implementation

Radan training can cover production preparation for sheet metal cutting and punching machines, manufacturing process planning and material utilisation optimisation.

Training can include:

  • component preparation,
  • nesting,
  • sheet utilisation optimisation,
  • material waste reduction,
  • laser cutting programming,
  • CNC punching programming,
  • cutting technology selection,
  • process parameter optimisation,
  • production documentation,
  • analysis and optimisation of existing CNC programmes.

TrueTops Training – Sheet Metal CNC Programming

TrueTops training is designed for companies using CNC programming systems for sheet metal manufacturing.

Training can cover:

  • CNC programme preparation,
  • nesting and sheet optimisation,
  • laser cutting programming,
  • punching programming,
  • tool selection,
  • operation sequence optimisation,
  • material waste reduction,
  • production documentation.

CNC Training for Operators and Production Technologists

Our CNC training for machine operators and training for production technologists can be based on the actual manufacturing processes used by your company.

Instead of focusing only on software functions, we show employees how to use CAD/CAM systems effectively for real production.

Training can cover:

  • how to prepare an effective manufacturing process,
  • how to select the right machining strategy,
  • how to reduce programming errors,
  • how to reduce programming time,
  • how to optimise machine cycle time,
  • how to reduce material waste,
  • how to identify and solve manufacturing problems,
  • how to improve component quality and process repeatability.

Technical Training – More Than Software Operation

Effective CAD/CAM training should include manufacturing technology, not just software functions.

Knowing how to operate a CAD/CAM system does not automatically mean that the most efficient manufacturing process will be created.

Our training therefore also covers:

  • manufacturing process selection,
  • operation sequencing,
  • cutting tool selection,
  • machining parameters,
  • cycle time optimisation,
  • material utilisation,
  • reduction of unnecessary operations,
  • collision analysis,
  • component quality,
  • production repeatability.

The objective is to develop a manufacturing process that is efficient, repeatable and suitable for real-world production conditions.

CAD/CAM Implementation for Manufacturing Companies

If your company already has licences for NX, SolidCAM, Radan or TrueTops, training can be combined with practical CAD/CAM implementation and process optimisation.

We analyse the current programming workflow and help your employees make better use of the software already available within the company.

CAD/CAM implementation can include:

  • analysis of the existing CNC programming process,
  • workflow optimisation,
  • employee training,
  • preparation of example manufacturing processes,
  • solving specific programming and technology problems,
  • optimisation of existing CNC programmes,
  • improvement of production preparation workflows,
  • ongoing technical support after training.

Online and On-Site CAD/CAM Training

Training can be delivered online or on-site at your company’s premises.

The training format depends on the scope of the implementation, software being used and the specific requirements of the company. For practical training, working with real production examples and data can be particularly effective.

Training can be organised for an individual employee, a team of CNC programmers and technologists, or a larger production department.
