Schools, Colleges & Technical Institutions
Educators around the world are teaching their students cutting-edge design and manufacturing with PlasmaCAM systems. This unique, hands-on opportunity inspires and challenges students to become successful craftsmen, designers, engineers and entrepreneurs.
With minimal training and expense, students take the initiative to create everything from signs and ornamental iron sculptures to custom automotive projects and competition robots. Many learn how to market the products they make to their communities, and they often raise more money for the school than the machine cost. Students enter the workforce with these skills, and they often use our machines to help their employers innovate or to start their own businesses.
PlasmaCAM enhances your curriculum with applied technology, promoting a new level of vocational and technical skills in metal shop, STEM programs, ag departments, and FFA programs. The machine is straightforward and well suited for secondary education, with the capacity for even university level engineering, artistic, and industrial projects.
Educators don’t just need an affordable CNC plasma cutting machine; they also need it to be reliable and easy to use. This is why PlasmaCAM is known among schools as the only way to go for education.
Hundreds of thousands of students attending high schools, colleges and vocational technical schools learn and use PlasmaCAM cutting systems.

“These days, vocational students need CNC experience. I get my students started with a simple thirty-minute demo on the PlasmaCAM and turn them loose on it. It’s so easy to use, even our special needs students have no problem running the machine. The kids spend the rest of the semester testing what the machine is capable of. Besides playing a key role in our shop program, our PlasmaCAM has saved enough money to pay for itself just by making signage for our school district!” – BRANDT, Canyon High School welding & vocational shop teacher
