After completing this lecture, you'll be able to
00:06
understand camp turning and fusion.
00:08
Describe the need for a tool library,
00:10
describe tool path creation and validation and
00:13
identify key steps in the camp process.
00:15
First. What is CAM?
00:17
Cam stands for computer aided manufacturing.
00:21
Cam is simply a tool used to help
00:22
program CNC machines to perform complex operations.
00:26
C can be used to program CNC mills and lathes, water jet machines,
00:30
laser and plasma cutters, 3D printers and more
00:34
C
00:34
tools are available in the manufacturing workspace in fusion.
00:39
So what is the C A workflow
00:41
in the manufacture workspace infusion?
00:43
There are a few key elements to the workflow for C A turning.
00:46
These are the basic steps required.
00:48
First, a tool library,
00:50
a digital library used to replicate physical tools,
00:54
a setup which contains critical properties such as which machine is
00:57
being used where the coordinate system and chuck are located.
00:60
And how big the stock is
01:02
the tool pass will be the path the tool
01:04
will take to remove material from stock for turning,
01:07
the stock will rotate while the tool moves in various axes
01:11
simulate will help validate tool pass for efficient and complete stock removal,
01:15
an NC program compiles machine post processor general settings,
01:19
tool path to include as well as things like program number and comment.
01:24
A setup sheet is a document that's created to convey information about a program.
01:28
This is things such as A W CS location,
01:31
the required tools and the estimated machine time.
01:34
And finally,
01:34
the G code is the machine readable code that's generated by converting
01:38
tool pass to a set of instructions for a specific machine.
01:43
The tool library,
01:45
a tool library is a digital representation of
01:47
physical tools that will be used to machine part
01:50
data about the tool is stored and selected during tool pa creation
01:54
data contained in the tool library includes things like holder, orientation,
01:58
insert, type and size feed rate and number
02:01
tool data must match a physical tool being
02:03
used to avoid potential collisions and incorrect parts.
02:07
CNC machines will reference tool numbers and retrieve a tool during operation.
02:13
A setup
02:14
AC setup contains critical information about the
02:16
stock coordinate system and machine used.
02:20
A camp setup identifies the chuck location for AC NC lathe.
02:24
A setup will define the safe Z location for retraction, moves
02:28
the coordinate system location
02:30
and the orientation is stored in a setup and common parameters such
02:33
as program number and W CS reference are also in the setup
02:37
toth
02:38
creation
02:39
tool passer routines used to define tool motion based on geometry.
02:43
Turning tool paths generally require the
02:45
selection of geometry directly or to provide
02:48
an area in which to focus based on a set of planes.
02:52
Turning tool pas contain various options for things like extension,
02:55
offset and suppression of specific features.
02:58
Tool pass settings will dictate the area to machine how to machine it
03:02
and how to enter and exit the cut
03:05
tool path validation
03:07
tool by validation is critical before any program is used on AC NC. Machine
03:12
tool baths can be validated by using in process
03:14
stock which displays as generated preview on the model.
03:17
After the tool bath has been run
03:20
simulation and machine simulation are used to learn more about the tool path
03:24
simulations show if too much material has been removed.
03:27
If a collision has happened or if material has been left behind.
03:30
Simulations are animations that allow you to
03:32
watch a sped up version of the machining
03:36
tool path documentation
03:38
tool pad documentation is the last step before setting up and testing. A set of tools
03:42
on a machine
03:44
NC programs are containers of information about which machine to use,
03:47
which settings for that machine and which tool pass are going to be posted.
03:51
Posting a tool path is a method of converting the created tool paths in C A
03:55
to code. A machine can understand
03:57
setup sheets are also created from an NC program and provide a machine operator
04:01
critical setup information to ensure that proper
04:03
stock tools and coordinate system are used.
04:07
In conclusion,
04:08
cam is used to create a digital tool library and tool pass to control tool,
04:11
motion to manufacture parts
04:14
to about definitions in cam are converted to
04:16
machine readable code for a specified machine.
04:19
Documentation is created to provide machine operators.
04:22
The instructions needed to set up a new set of tool paths
04:26
and validation is used to verify tool pass before any physical parts are made.
