Case Study: Artwood Academy enhances wood-furniture training with SCM technology

Artwood Academy trains 750 students with SCM

Artwood Academy, a technical education institution in Italy's furniture design region, faced the challenge of bridging the growing skills gap in the woodworking industry. To provide students with professional, hands-on training, they needed a fully equipped, modern workshop. They partnered with vendor SCM to outfit their lab with the latest woodworking technologies and CNC machining centres.

SCM implemented a comprehensive solution, providing over twenty machines including 5-axis and 3-axis CNC machining centres like the Morbidelli m200 and Startech cn k, along with innovative safety systems. The vendor also provided specialized trainer expertise and access to its online e-campus platform. The results are substantial: since 2013, the Academy has trained over 750 students, with 95% of its 250+ graduates employed in roles consistent with their studies. SCM's technology and support continue to be central to the Academy's mission and future expansion.
