Wood

Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining is a manufacturing process in which pre-programmed computer software dictates the movement of factory tools and machinery. The process can be used to control a range of complex machinery, from grinders and lathes to mills and CNC routers. With CNC machining, three-dimensional cutting tasks can be accomplished in a single set of prompts.

Shark CNC/ Vcarve Pro

VCarve Pro gives you the power to produce complex 2D patterns with profile, pocket, drill and inlay toolpaths, plus gives you the ability to create designs with v-carving textures as well as import and machine unlimited Vectric 3D clipart or single model files.

Simulation- Polygon Box

This is VCarve Pro's simulation of the cut out of the Poly box. It shows the toolpaths and how the bit will move through the wood. The little tabs shown connecting to the box to the piece of wood are to ensure the bit does not cut the box fully out of the wood. If it did, the box would become loose and could break the machine.
