About this collection

You are not just watching from the sidelines here. Our students get hands-on programming time on industrial Biesse and Homag machines, moving from CAD models to finished components within the same session. It is the practical bridge between digital design files and real-world industrial output.

Modern woodworking is rarely just about hand tools alone. To build a career in furniture design, you need to understand the full lifecycle of production, which is why our digital fabrication module is deeply integrated into our diploma curriculum. You start at the design lab, translating your ideas into precise 3D models using professional software like PYTHA 3D, CAD, and CATIA.

Once the design is validated, you move to the shop floor. Here, you will learn to program and operate industrial-grade CNC routers, including our Biesse Rover and Homag drilling machines. This is not just theory. You will handle nesting, manage tool paths, and oversee the automated cutting of panels. We teach you how to troubleshoot the machine, understand feed rates, and optimize material usage, which is a critical skill for any furniture professional. By the end of this module, you will not just know how to run a CNC machine, but you will understand the industrial workflow from raw board to finished component, preparing you for the realities of modern manufacturing during your 6-month industrial internship.
