Description:
Mill 3 Axis provides students with the skills necessary
to program and machine simultaneous 3D parts. Some
topics that are covered in this class include: §
Surface Creation § Surface Editing § 3D
Curve Creation § 3D Curve Contouring § 3D
Pocketing § Surface Machining § Collision
Checking § High Speed Machining § Finish
Machining
While
Mastercam comes with an excellent manual and tutorial,
there is no substitute for a structured class, taught
by a certified instructor. Cimquest has also authored
an entire series of manuals for Mastercam.
