CAD: First you need a 3D CAD model of the thing you wanna carve.These fancy cuts are big deal for a computer to do, but a computer doesn’t know what’s in your head, so here’s how to tell it what’s in your head.
You can make a lot of really cool stuff using just these types of cuts, but you can also carve more 3D looking shapes or do really complex designs with multiple flat surfaces, way more than you would wanna calculate manually. Lastly, this wasn’t a sponsored project or anything, but we’ll go ahead and link to Fusion and the CNCs we used in this video:įirst off we’re gonna go over the different types of carving a CNC can do. Second, here are time-stamps for the video for each section we’re gonna cover.ģ:14 CAM – setup – setup tab (orientation and zero)Ħ:28 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpathĦ:36 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpath – tool tabĦ:43 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpath – geometry tabħ:35 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpath – heights tabħ:42 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpath – passes tabĨ:31 CAM – toolpaths – customize toolpath – linking tab First, a link to the Fusion 360 3D file we’re using so you can follow along/poke around: So we’ve put together this beginners guide to using Fusion 360 CAM for your CNC.īefore we dive in, here are a couple things to help you follow along. Fusion 360 is an awesome tool you can use with your CNC because you can do fancy cuts like 3D curves, slopes, and complex layers.
