Version 1.3
The Mastercam X6 Beginner Training Tutorial provides a comprehensive step-by-step approach to learning the basics of three Mastercam modules: Mill Level 1 (2D), Lathe and Solids. It is a great choice for an individual looking to get a broader overview of the software or an instructor looking to provide the same for his/her students. Six mill projects, two lathe projects, and three solid projects – the same found at the start of our newly revised Mill Level 1, Lathe and Solids Training Tutorials – are combined with 11 practice exercises and the Mastercam X6 Home Learning Edition DVD (Demo Software) to round out this compilation book. Each tutorial systematically walks through all the procedures from Geometry Creation to Toolpath instructions, Verification and G Code Generation. In nearly 800 pages, a wide range of topics are covered including 2D Geometry and Solids Creation, Drilling, Tapping, Contouring, Pocketing, Circle Milling and Slot Milling. It also contains 2D High Speed Toolpaths, with further explanations given for the use of transforming toolpaths, as well as proper Stock Setup and Tool Settings. The book also includes a General Notes chapter with useful tools and shortcuts that make the software even easier to use. You will also find a description of the 2D toolpath parameters of the Solid menu and Operations Manager. For users looking to explore Mastercam more deeply, it is suggested to look at our titles dedicated to each topic; Mill Level 1 Training Tutorial, Lathe Training Tutorial and Solids Training Tutorial. For example, the Mill Level 3 Training Tutorial would better follow the Mill Level 1 text for example, as it contains an extra 4 mill-related tutorials beyond what is found in the Beginner Training Tutorial.From $39.99 -

Version 1.2
The Mastercam X6 Mill Level 1 Metric Training Tutorial brings with it 10 brand new tutorials and 10 new exercises for X6. Now completely revamped, our refreshing new layout presents the material clearly, logically and more thoroughly than ever before! The combination of new tutorials, practice exercises and quizzes found within the book deliver an excellent package of material covering virtually all aspects of 2D machining. This book begins with the absolute basics by introducing the Mastercam user interface and it will have you creating geometry, drilling and creating contour toolpaths before you know it. Its gradual progression lends way to more advanced concepts such as multiple setup scenarios and 2D High Speed Toolpaths. A General Notes chapter is included as a PDF on the disc that outlines useful tools, shortcuts and 2D toolpath parameter descriptions. Nearly 900 pages cover a multitude of topics including 2D geometry and solids creation, tool settings, stock setup, drilling, tapping, contouring, pocketing, circle milling, slot milling, 2D High Speed Toolpaths (such as Dynamic Core Mill, Area Mill, Rest Mill and Contour Mill), how to import a solid and using the WCS in multiple fixture applications.From $39.99 -
Version 1.2
The Mastercam X6 Lathe Training Tutorial consists of 9 brand new part-oriented tutorials, and 9 practice exercises that provide users with an excellent foundation in Lathe. The material emphasizes the machinability of parts with suggested fixtures, setup sheets & more. The Lathe Training Tutorial is ideal for beginners and current Mastercam users alike. The tutorials introduce 2D, and later 3D geometry creation along with detailed coverage of 2D toolpaths such as Face, Rough, Finish, Drilling, Grooving, Grooving on an angle, Inside Boring, Cutoff, Threading and Canned Cycles for Rough and Finish. More advanced C-Axis toolpaths such as Face Contour, Cross Contouring, C-Axis Contour, Face Drilling, Cross Drilling and C-Axis drill follow later in the book. Details on Stock Transfer, Stock Flip, Stock Advance and tailstock toolpaths, in addition to instruction on importing a SolidWorks file and using the new Turn Profile command to create Geometry and a VTL tutorial are also found within. A General Notes chapter provides useful tools, shortcuts and toolpath parameter descriptions.From $35 -
Version 1.2
Intended for the advanced Mastercam user, this book contains new projects demonstrating a variety of Advanced Multiaxis milling applications. The initial tutorials introduce Mastercam’s simplified multiaxis user interface featuring custom application toolpaths, and they later transition to the more advanced interface. Topics include custom application toolpaths such as Projection, Swarf milling, Impeler floor surface and Impeller blade swarf finish toolpaths. From the Wireframe toolpath family, you will learn how to use Parallel to multiple curves and Morph between two curves. You will also generate rough and finish toolpaths from the Surface/Solid toolpath family, such as Morph between two surfaces, Parallel cuts and Parallel to surface. Additionally, a special project is designed specifically to familiarize you with different Collision control strategies and how to verify the toolpaths using the new machine simulation module that combines toolpath backplot mode and material removal mode with collision detections. This version is in metric units.From $39.99 -
Version 1.2
Port Expert is an add-on product for Mastercam designed specifically for engine porting applications. The Mastercam X5 Port Expert Tutorial is a single tutorial that introduces Port Expert, walks you through a practical example of how to precisely machine a head port from both sides using a tapered lollipop tool. The Port Expert toolpath uses 3-Axis machining as far into the port as possible, then switches to 5-Axis motion, leaving no fishtails, reverse moves or uneven transitions where the toolpaths meet. Within the software, collision checks are in place for the entire tool (shank, arbor and holder).From $15 -
