CAM Process Defined – DIY Computer Aided Manufacturing Tutorial

August 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

Ivan Irons at CNC has just completed a new CNC Basic E-Course learning series about the CNC Process. Ivan has just completed video four which is all you need to know about Computer Aided Manufacturing in the series of 6 video’s; video’s 1 thru 4 were previously released. It is a seven part video course that walks an amateur through the basic process of CNC. Those who are beginning to learn CNC will benefit greatly from Ivan’s easy to understand CAM instruction.

 

The CNC basics E-Course is a video series that was created for the CNC Beginner to give a brief overview of the major steps of the CNC process.  Ivan made sure to use simple language to explain complex processes and narrates each video with his own personal tips included.  The six videos in the basic E-Course will cover the five prominent steps in CNC:

 

Design

Cad

Cam

Controlling

Machining

 

The videos in this basics series that have been released can be found at: CNC Videos

 

Video4:

Ivan focuses video 4 on CAM. CAM stands for Computer Aided Manufacturing. During the CAM step of the CNC Process Ivan uses software to teach how our CNC Machine should move. There are a number of CAM Software packages on the market which Ivan walks the user through in this video. Ivan goes through CAM Software techniques where he defines things like stock, location, tooling, feed and speeds and the post processor in use.

 

Ivan seems to have a talent for taking a complex topic such as CNC, picking out the most important aspects, and breaking down those topics into laymen terms. Ivan has started a fantastic CNC basic E-course. Video’s 5 and 6 in the series are set to release in January of 2008.

 

You can find the CNC Basic E-Course Video’s at Ivan’s Blog: CNC Blog.  You can always check on Ivan’s website at CNC Videos to find his latest CNC projects and video’s.
