Become a SolidCAM professional and learn one of employer's most requested skills nowadays!
This comprehensive course is designed for students, engineers, mechanics professionals... to be able to use SolidCam from scratch to learn CAD, CAM and CNC Programming in a simple and practical way. Never mind if you have no experience in the software, you will be equally capable of understanding everything and you will finish the course with mastery of the subject.
After several years working as an Engineer, I have realized that being an expert in SolidCam to conduct CAM and CNC today is something very necessary in engineering or other industrial and mechanical applications. Solid Cam is one of the leader softwares in the industry and its demand is increasing. Knowing how to use this software can give you many job opportunities and many economic benefits, especially in the world of engineering.
The big problem has always been the complexity to perfectly understand the software it requires, since its absolute mastery is not easy. In this course I try to facilitate this entire learning and improvement process, and you will be able to carry out and understand your own projects in a short time, thanks to the step-by-step and detailed examples of every concept.
With more than 8 exclusive hours of video, this comprehensive course leaves no stone unturned! It includes both practical exercises and theoretical examples to master Solidcam. This course will teach you CNC Programming in a practical manner.
