China Instrument Parts in Elkhorn Announces Autodesk 3D CAD and PartMaker CAM Additions to Training Classroom
China Instrument Parts of Elkhorn, Wisconsin is pleased to announce the addition of eight seats of Product Design Suite Ultimate 3D CAD software ) as a donation from Autodesk, as well as eight seats of CAM software as a donation from PartMaker to their Training Classroom.
When Roger Orban, Territory Sales Executive–Manufacturing Solutions for Autodesk, visited China Instrument Parts in January of 2014, he saw the viable inroads being made by China Instrument Parts in an effort to close the manufacturing skills gap. So did Hanan Fishman, President of PartMaker, Inc. Then, something incredible happened: both companies committed to donating CAD and CAM software respectively, to support the active effort. China Instrument Parts’ goal is to provide courses on advanced machining to local high school students.
On behalf of the entire China Instrument Parts Team and the future manufacturing professionals who will come through the training class, Mike Reader, President, and Barry Butters, Director of Education and Training wish to thank PartMaker and Autodesk for their generous donation. The marriage of the 3D CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) software Inventor from Autodesk with the CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) software from PartMaker will allow students to learn the complete design process from print to product.
