Description

This 1-day class teaches Mastercam users traditionally lacking surface modeling skills the essentials of Mastercam surfacing. While useful for all users, this class is intended for those users of Mastercam Mill users to fully utilize their Mastercam Mill software to machine a wider variety of parts and cut more efficiently. This class typically runs the day before the Advanced 2D Methods and Machining class.

Prerequisites: Mill Essentials Part 1 class or like experience.

What’s Included: Each trainee is provided with a workstation. All training materials are included.

Duration: 1 Day

Class Times: 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Course Content

This course will cover surface creation of a wide variety of surface types from wirefram geometry and other modeling related functions. Surface types will include:

• Surfaces from solids.
• Flat, ruled and lofted surfaces.
• Extruded, swept and revolved surfaces.
• Draft, net and offset surfaces.
• Power surfaces.
• Converting surfaces to solids.

Along with surface creation this course will cover surface modification tools such as:

• Trimming to a curves, surfaces and planes.
• Surface extensions and runout surfaces.
• Filling holes.
• Various surface editing functions.
