Basic Swiss Programming
(2 Day Module)
Students will learn to produce CNC programs for basic Swiss-turning Applications.

Topics covered in-depth:

• Creating and Importing geometry in PartMaker CAD

• Creating and storing tools

• Tool Shifts

• Overview of Materials database and its customization

• Creating and storing repetitive part features

• Creating Toolpaths for Turning, Grooving, Contouring and Threading

• 2-axis Turning on the Main and Sub-Spindle

• Cut-Off and Part Transfer

• Developing Optimized Process Plans and Process Synchronization

• Generating and Verifying editing-free NC Code

• Self Programming Exercise - Swiss Turning

• 3D Solid Modeling Verification

• Introduction to Live Tooling: Creating Saw Slots and Cross Holes

• Machine Specific Programming Techniques

Swiss Programming Workshop
(2 Day Module)
After the completion of the two day Basic Swiss Programming curriculum, there is a two day Swiss Programming Workshop. During this workshop, students have the opportunity to program their own parts and focus on programming for specific Swiss-type 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: Basic Swiss Programming Module.
