Training Solutions

Design and Manufacturing Training

SwooshTec has industry experience with design tools in the space of heavy equipment, aerospace, off-road vehicles, die cast dies, pattern design, automotive, and consumer products. We supply turnkey training solutions, beginning with concept development through design, and manufacturing. 

Swoosh Technologies delivers training solutions that relate specifically to your engineering process. We focus on your business initiatives only. Our courses are process specific, not the generalities as taught in most “open enrollment” classes. We focus on concurrent processes and virtual engineering to increase the engineering intent of design. We conform our training to your specific requirement and deliver bottom line results to achieve your lean engineering goals. Call us today and let us show you how we can successfully meet your training requirements.

Manufacturing Training Options:

Making an accurate 3D representation of a product is critical. Being able to manufacture from your model is paramount. Design data comes in many different formats (STEP, IGES, DXF, Parasolid, etc.). A CAM system today must be flexible enough to recognize many different types of data input and allow for ease of processing generating the required machine output. This leads to many ways within a CAM system to approach your model to create the end product.

Some of the areas we cover for Computer Aided Manufacturing are:

  • Operation Navigator
  • Parent Groups
  • Assembly Modeling
  • Machining Environment
  • Multi-Axis Techniques
  • Mill-Turn Operations
  • 3 Axis Cavity Milling
  • Z-Level Mechining
  • 5-Axis Aerospace
  • Visualization
  • Planar Milling Operations
  • Manufacturing Coordinate Systems
  • Face Milling Operations
  • Drilling Operations
  • Fixed Contour Operations
  • Post Processor Creation
  • Machine Simulation Libraries

What our Customers have to say...
MedWestvaco Corp.

Swoosh handled our PLM installation and training with great service and commitment. When there was an issue they supported us through the whole process. Their training services really focused on meeting the specific needs we had and saved us money and time.

Hydro-Gear

Swoosh has provided us with a wealth of information involving, not only our pre-existing issues, but also current issues involving the migration from an I-DEAS TDM to the Teamcenter PDM. They have made on-site visits, Appshare sessions and many email and phone responses to our many questions. Swoosh has made every effort and have been extremely successful in fulfilling their commitment to us.

InSinkErator

The NX drafting training we received from Swoosh was timely and focused. It came at a time when user productivity and moral were low due to InSinkErator' s moving off its I-deas CAD platform to NX ant TcE. Our ECN productivity hasreturned to levels that were seen before the migration and our users are almost excited to use the new system.

ULTERRA

We hired Swoosh Technologies for a one week NX6 CAM training class that was hugely successful. We tailored the training to a five day mentoring program and I was extremely pleased with the results. This mentoring class has reduced our CAM time by 35 to 40 %. The instructor did a fantastic job teaching ways to speed up our process. This was money well spent.

Gibbs Die Casting

The training provided by Swoosh was a tremendous boost in our production. By being able to now utilize all of the new functionality improvements that UG offers we have reduced design time by 15% in most cases. I thank you for the professional delivery and technical knowledge that you provided to our team.
