QuickPart
takes a student step-by-step through a basic CAD/CAM application. It uses Mastercam
functionality to let a student first design a part, and then create toolpaths
to cut the part. From material selection, stock size and tool selection, a
student will learn the methods involved in manufacturing with CAM software.
QuickPart guides students through the process of creating simple parts by
presenting them with one concept per screen. When students are able to cut
parts they designed shortly after being introduced to Mastercam, they are encouraged
by their progress and eager to learn more. Extensive instructor controls allow
instructors to configure the program to match their students' needs and
available resources. In addition, each QuickPart project can generate a
printable detailed setup sheet showing toolpath, stock size and selected tool
that instructors can review before running the CNC machine. Mastercam QuickPart
is a standalone product that has been developed on the Mastercam Demo/Home
Learning Edition platform.
