The work flow on
Multicam 3000 Series.
Since I have all the machinery needed at work I used the Multicam 3000 series as the cnc machine for this assignment.
The CAM software for the Multicam was EnRoute.
Fig1. Export from Eagle to FlatCam file .
Fig 2. The ininial step needed is to set up the correct table.
Fig 3. I exported all files to Enroute program on PDF, DXF and DWG extensions. Then I joined the diferent segments on the software.
Fig 4.Then, selected the tool diameter, in my case was 6mm. the cut dept was 10mm since the material had 9mm width and I had to ensure the cutting because sometimes the MDF curves and lifts the material from the plate.
Then, I set it up for 4 passes (each one of 2.5mm) and 20000 RPM
then generate and pickup the area on blank, the software will paint the selected area.
.
Fig 5. the cutting speed was 800 mm/min, and the depth speed was 200 mm/min
Fig 6. Then select the operation, in my case external mill.
Fig7. The Jon Console is a program to generate the G code.
Fig8. It geneates the G code.
exported to the machine.
Fig9. In the machine code.
Fig10. Then received the G code. this machine needs to warm up for about 15 minutes before any job.
Fig11. Then I proceeded to set the zero points on two diferent point on the table.
