14.) BLOG POST: CNC Milled Sample

Post date: Nov 13, 2017 7:31:13 PM

Assignment Description:

We worked (in pairs) to design a sample to be CNC cut from pink foam on the small CNC machine. Now, it is time to use CAM (computer aided machining) software to generate tool paths, and finally, to cut out our designs!

Assignment Requirements:

1.) Work with your partner to generate GCODE via Fusion 360 CAM. (Be sure to run a simulation and check your design before sending to the CNC!)

2.) Once you have trained, schedule time with the CNC mill and cut your design! (pink foam will be provided!)

3.) Document the above steps (screenshots, photos and/or videos) on your process blog.

4.) Include with this documentation a brief description/explanation of each image.
