Abstract |
|
CNC (computer numerically controlled) mills cut objects out of durable materials and are widely used in modern manufacturing. They enable rapid prototyping in workshops and improve the speed and efficiency of factory lines. Yet most mills are costly and difficult to use, keeping them out of reach for individuals and small businesses. It brings CNC technology to a size and price that will fit in your home or office. Its revolutionary simplicity makes it possible for everyone – whether a novice or trained engineer – to create high-quality finished products.CAD (Computer Aided Design) - Inscape, a vector drawing program specializing in SVG format graphics. Typically, a program such as Free CAD would be used to make a .dxf. CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) -Maker CAM, a Flash file which will import SVG graphics and allow one to define operations (such as Profile, Pocket, Follow Path or Drill) to be applied to, or along, or at the center of paths at feeds and speed rates appropriate to the selected material. |
