Case Study: Lincoln College of Technology trains future machinists with Mastercam

Lincoln College of Technology Teaches Students CAD/CAM Programming

Lincoln College of Technology, an Indianapolis-based technical school, needed an intuitive and easy-to-use CAM software to prepare its students for various industry demands and successful careers in manufacturing. The challenge was to find a flexible system that could serve as a gateway for students to understand and program a wide range of complex CNC machines.

Mastercam provided the solution with its Educational Suite, including Mill, Lathe, and Multiaxis products. The software's streamlined interface and features like Raster to Vector and plane control allowed students to program efficiently. The measurable impact was significant, with Mastercam's training contributing to a 90% hiring rate for the school's graduates.
