This handout does not cover all of the information that will be discussed in the class and should be looked at as supplementary information.ĬAM Overview CAM – Computer Aided Manufacturing How does it work? Toolpath The model geometry is analysed and a 3D path for the cutting tool is fitted to it, based on a particular strategy for removing the material. Some additional background information is included for those who have never used CAM software or are otherwise unfamiliar with the process of creating machine code from CAD models. Introduction This document is intended to function primarily as a step-by-step guide to the workflows which will be demonstrated in this class. Integrated CAM: Inventor HSM is a Well-Oiled Machine This has taught him to adapt and calibrate his digital-prototyping tools to give real-world results. Gavin places utmost emphasis on manufacturability in the design work he does as a result of having always worked very closely with the manufacturing environment. In these areas he has designed machinery, equipment, and products involving a huge variety of materials and manufacturing processes. Gavin has worked in a variety of industries, including aerospace, defense, consumer products, and materials, and he has handled equipment for everything from logging to mining to food. Before becoming a technical consultant, he spent about 10 years as a mechanical designer using Inventor software and Vault software. His focus is primarily AutoCAD Inventor software, Vault software, and the Autodesk HSM CAM products. Understand the benefits of a truly integrated CAM SolutionĪbout the Speaker Gavin Bath is currently employed by New Zealand’s largest Autodesk Reseller in a role split between technical support/consulting and software development, usually in the form of customization for Autodesk, Inc., products. Perform typical data management processes like revision changes for machined parts.
Learn how to post process toolpaths to convert to machine code Learn how to set up stock and create toolpaths for machining inside Inventor software Learning Objectives At the end of this class, you will be able to: In this class you will see just how easily you can maintain both in a single file, using Inventor HSM software and Vault software. Data management is often a nightmare for companies that maintain design files separately from files containing manufacturing information such as toolpaths. You will learn about the workflows used to create machine code for the CNC (computer numerical control) machining of your parts, and you will also learn the benefits of using an integrated CAM system.
