The PowerMill Training Course offered by BIT provides comprehensive training in advanced CNC programming using Autodesk PowerMill, a leading CAM software used in precision manufacturing. The course begins with an introduction to the PowerMill interface, basic settings, and project setup. Learners are then guided through essential topics such as importing 3D CAD models, defining stock and tooling parameters, and creating roughing and finishing toolpaths. As the course progresses, participants explore advanced machining strategies including high-speed machining, multi-axis operations (3-axis to 5-axis), and rest machining techniques. A major focus is placed on toolpath simulation, collision detection, and optimizing tool movements to reduce machining time and improve surface finish. Students also gain hands-on experience in post-processing and generating NC code compatible with various CNC machines. By combining theoretical instruction with practical lab sessions, the course equips students with the skills required to work on real-world manufacturing projects confidently and efficiently.
