01About the course
What you will learn in Mastercam
Mastercam is a CAD/CAM software from CNC Software used to create toolpaths for CNC machines. You bring in or draw a part, choose tools and cutting parameters, and Mastercam generates the path the cutter will follow. It then simulates the cut and posts out the G-code the machine runs. Its Dynamic Motion toolpaths are known for cutting faster while keeping tool load steady. Mastercam is used in machine shops, tool rooms, die and mould makers, and in automotive and aerospace component suppliers.
This page is for learners outside Vellore, Katpadi and Ranipet – NRIs, professionals in the Gulf and other countries, and students elsewhere in India who want Mastercam taught live by a trainer.
Basic computer use and an understanding of engineering drawings are expected. Shop-floor or machining knowledge helps a lot, but the course begins with manufacturing and CNC basics.
