PAD Starts CAD/CAM Classes

PAD Systems Technology is offering training classes for its CAD/CAM software on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at the company’s Los Angeles office, based in suite A-1155 of the California Market Center.

The classes are offered in English, Spanish, Korean or Chinese and cover all aspects of PAD’s Master Series pattern design, Virtual 3-D, Haute Couture 3-D and other applications. The cost is $15 for each two-hour session. The sessions offer personal instruction as well as assistance with an automated tutorial program.

PAD is being used in numerous colleges and universities as well as on a professional level. The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and Los Angeles Trade-Technical College in Los Angeles are among the schools that recently added the software to their curricula.

PAD has added new features to its www.padsystem.com Web site, which allows users to employ 3-D features with imported data files from other systems such as those produced by Gerber Technology and Lectra Systems.
