Dear Martin,

Here at the NTMA Training Center we have a variety of CAM programs to choose from in the training of our students who are beginning a career in machining.  We choose Geopath for several reasons:

1. The program is intuitive as one dialog window follows the next to guide the student through the process of creating an NC file.
   
   
2. The CAD drawing package is smooth and predictable.  With a minimal number of mouse clicks, students can produce drawings in very little time.  As with all good software, students can easily step back out of a sequence of errors. 
   
   
3. The program is very stable.  We never experience frustrating “fatal error” shutdowns with Geopath.

We also train incumbent workers in Geopath, in which case the software is taught as a stand-alone application.  We get calls consistently for training on Geopath, and find that employees enjoy the program because it represents the right balance between speed – ease of use, and power.  Intuitive as it is, Geopath still has the sophistication to handle the vast majority of part programming activities in Silicon Valley.

Lastly, we use Geopath as one package to provide an introduction to apprentice machinists as part of our 4^th year, 2^nd semester.  The theme of this semester is “Computers in Machining.”   In this class we also use AutoCAD to draw parts, and show students how easy it is to import AutoCAD dxf files into Geopath for programming.

This semester is enjoyed by all apprentices.

Sincerely,
