Case Study: Temescal Canyon High School prepares students for manufacturing careers with Mastercam

Temescal Canyon High School - Customer Case Study

Temescal Canyon High School sought to expand its students' knowledge and opportunities within advanced CAD/CAM operations through its Engineering Design program. The challenge was to prepare students with practical, career-ready skills for modern manufacturing. To meet this, the school integrated curricula featuring Mastercam software, including its Educational Suite, Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS, and Dynamic Motion technology.

By implementing Mastercam, the school created a progressive curriculum where students learn practical machining skills, from basic operation to complex programming. This solution, guided by input from Mastercam and local industry advisors, has yielded significant results. Students gain confidence and valuable skills, leading to internships and employment at local machine shops. The program's success is exemplified by a real-world project where students use Mastercam to efficiently design and manufacture medals for a mountain bike team, applying professional techniques like Dynamic Milling to optimize cycle times.
