SolidCAM
Course Information
Duration: 30 Hours
Fee: $1400
Description
This course is designed to help students learn machining using SOLIDCAM, a CAM software integrated with SOLIDWORKS which provides a complete
set of tools required for part machining. This course is designed for both students and professionals covering all major tools and operation
of this software. After completing this course, the trainees/students will be able to control and simulate the toolpath, and will be able to
generate the NC-code file.
