SolidWorks CAM tutorial: Intro to 3-Axis Milling (4)

[@rexmundi8154]

Keep em coming! These are great.

[@RcTruckModel]

Thank you so much! Best explanation ever !

[@georgechambers3197]

Great stuff, thanks for the video!

[@anesdigast2666]

Thanks professeur .i have cnc milling .i learn your cours .thank you very much for this vedeo .

[@cristinaoliveira387]

Thank you very much!!!

[@andrewwieg2735]

Thanks for sharing. These have been very helpful. When I follow along step by step on this tutorial, I'm having trouble getting the tool path to generate in multi surface feature. It's generating a zero length tool path which won't simulate. Is there a setting I need to adjust? Thanks.

Hello Professor Cameron - your videos are extremely helpful. In one of the videos you mentioned the PROTOTRAKS may require some programming difference for doing 3-axis milling? Is there a video where you cover this....?

[@vishrutvora2465]

Hello Professor, these videos have been great resources. I've a query with 4th axis. I am able to generate 4axis independent machining G-code, the one where features on every face gets machined by flipping A axis to suitable degree.
But unable to generate 4-axis simultaneous code. Need to do some cam-type profile where XYZA all axes needs work together. What am missing ? Have 2019 version.

Thanks verymuch

Could you do the same tutorial, only for machining fillets on the external edges? So instead of your part having a bowl in the middle your part would have both top and corner edges filleted. I am unable to figure out how to set an origin outside of the physical part (the point at which a filleted corner would be a straight corner) and for fillets on the outside edge SW doesn't detect them nor am I able to select them manually. Thank you for your consideration.

[@professorcameron3990]

i can certainly put this on the list for you!

[@ferdimajster]

Could you share dimensions of the revolve cut or upload the part? I want to be sure that my part is identical to yours before I start the tutorial.

I am loving your videos, I have been using Solid works for about 9 years now, but I have never used the CAM software. We just got in a new 3 axis mill and I am trying to convert the G code into something it can read. Do you have any tutorials on that?

[@professorcameron3990]

Which Mill/ controller do you have?....gcode is mostly universal, but some controllers can be quirky and need the code formatted differently.

[@ryker6522]

@@professorcameron3990 We have an Acu-Rite G2 controller, it's brand new.

Hi , professore , u doing some cource online please about solid came ?

[@Buciasda33]

0.25" (6.25mm) Ball Nose is small...
And here I am using a 1mm Tapered Ball Nose complaining that it's too big...

[@VBaronV]

Next target on 5 axes as on Catia? 🙏🤭🤙

[@macquillian8735]

Should this work in Solidworks Standard, Solidworks CAM?

[@macquillian8735]

Nevermind, figured it out. Only works on bowls. I need a half pipe curve.

[@macquillian8735]

More figured it out... works just like you showed it. Thanks

It is ALUMINIUM not Aluminum. Do you say Potassium or Potassum?

[@philz9835]

Nope. Its aluminum.
And potassium.
