CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) involves using computer-controlled machinery to manufacture products. In jewellery design, CAM helps in automating the production process, allowing for precise, consistent, and intricate designs through tools like CNC milling machines and 3D printers.

Basic knowledge of CAD (Computer-Aided Design) is beneficial but not always required. The syllabus often includes an introduction to CAD if needed, though having some familiarity can enhance your learning experience.

The course typically covers popular CAM software such as RhinoCAM, Mastercam, or Fusion 360, depending on the institution's resources and focus.

Practical projects are a core component, where students apply CAM techniques to create actual jewellery pieces. This hands-on experience helps reinforce learning and demonstrates real-world applications.

Students will work with CNC milling machines, 3D printers, and potentially casting equipment. Each piece of machinery is used to produce different aspects of jewellery design and manufacturing.

Yes, the syllabus includes training on basic maintenance and troubleshooting to handle common issues with CAM equipment, ensuring smooth operation and longevity of the tools.

Safety protocols are emphasized, with training on safe operation of machinery, proper handling of materials, and adherence to safety standards to prevent accidents and ensure a safe working environment.

Post-processing techniques such as cleaning, polishing, and finishing of 3D-printed parts or cast jewellery are covered to achieve high-quality, professional results.

Evaluation typically includes practical project assessments, written reports or presentations. Performance is assessed based on the quality of work, adherence to design specifications, and overall understanding of CAM processes.
