Week 07
Computer-Controlled Machining
Individual Assignment
Make a design, mill and assemble something big, don’t use fasteners or glue, and include curved surfaces
Concept Design :
Design and fabricate a bench for two people. The design with a logo on top and joins without any fasteners.
The standard sheet of plywood is 4x8 feet with 18mm thickness
Design Using SolidWorks
Top part of the bench |
Side panel for the bench |
Center support for the bench |
Complete assembly of the bench |
Design using CorelDRAW
Save the file as DXF format to import into ArtCAM |
To generate a cutting path, we used ARTCAM
Steps to generate the toolpath
Import DXF file into ArtCAM with workpiece dimension as 4x8 Feet and thickness 18mm | |
Create outer toolpath with 6 mm drill bit as cutting tool | |
Create an inner toolpath with a 6 mm drill bit as the cutting tool | |
Complete the toolpath and export the cutting path file | |
Create a inner clearance area for the logo to a depth of 5 mm |

Fixing the tool bit | |
Clamps to hold the plywood ensure the minimum edge is held securely and does not disturb the tool path. | The teach pendant is used to control spindle movement and all other related controls. Using the teach pendant align the tool to the origine of the work piece. |
Always run the engrave first; here, a logo is engraved in the wood. | Then run the inner cut toolpath. |
And finally, run the outer toolpath so that the inner cut aligns. | |
A few helping hands, aways use wood working tools. | |
