* Please note, that classes held at our Philadelphia-area corporate headquarters are actually 4½ days in duration, with the Friday of the week of class offered as a half day. Students are not obliged to stay for this free half day if they do not wish to. It is merely offered as a service to customers attending the class in Philadelphia. We do however request that students attending a four day course make their travel arrangements such that they can be present for the entirety of the first 4 days of the class.

Curriculum - Day 3 and 4

Multi-Axis Turning Programming Workshop (2 Day Module)

After the completion of the two day course on PartMaker Turn and Turn-Mill, there is a two day Multi-Axis Turning Programming Workshop. During this workshop, students have the opportunity to program their own parts and focus on programming for specific multi-axis lathe models under the supervision of a PartMaker Applications specialist. This assures users they will return to the shop ready to cut parts.

The workshop is also an excellent opportunity for existing users to brush up on PartMaker or apply the software to a new machine they have not yet programmed or get consultation on programming difficult jobs.

Prerequisite: PartMaker for Turning and PartMaker for Turn-Mill.
