CAM Strategies for Multi-Axis Milling
Course overview
Get the practice and understanding to identify combinations of axes and how to efficiently program. We'll review best practices to prepare an initial design for manufacture, set up a tool library and machine definition, create a digital twin of the physical manufacturing environment, and explore both multi-axis positioning and simultaneous multi-axis toolpaths. Follow along as we learn the CAM workflow for multi-axis machining in Fusion.
After completing this course, you'll be able to:
- Prepare a design for manufacture.
- Create a digital twin of multi-axis workholding.
- Define a digital CNC machine.
- Understand multi-axis work offsets.
- Create 3+1 and 3+2 roughing and finishing operations.
- Create simultaneous multi-axis operations.
- Create supporting documentation for a CAM setup.
