I have my commonly used tools and materials set up in different templates.īefore you profiled your corners did you join your polylines? Copying mops you set up to various templates can have different feeds and speeds (or whatever) for various templates. Highlight "default" and type a new template name and press enter. Go to "template" at the top, right above the graphics screen in the middle. CamBam can also be used for reading the Gerber files produced by printed circuit design programs. This will copy them to the "default" template. CamBam is a low cost program that provides extensive control of the CNC machine. To change global feeds and speeds, just set them in a MOP, right click on the MOP (machine op) and "copy mop to template". In other words $o=0020 will give it O number 20. Under that, in "post processor macros" give it a $o=(o#). Is there a way to prevent the cutter edge from crossing the profile line? One possibility would be to draw a smooth fillet at each corner, which would be easy in Mastercam but not obvious in CB.ī) Is there a way to generate cutter comp for the toolpath? Similarly, can it generate G43 H? on tool changes?In the machining choice in the "tree" pick the fanuc post processor to get tool length offset with g43. The computed toolpath cuts into either line. CB rendered the symbol as %%C.Ī) My drawing has a profile that contains straight lines intersecting with arcs leaving an "interior corner".

This is not important for Mach3 however code generated with the Fanuc post processor needs one.ĭ) My drawing had dimensions with the diameter symbol in two places. It would be nice to be able to easily change these globally.Ĭ) The program doesn't let me specify an O program number. Since they sell a CB/CutViewer bundle I believe that you'd want CutViewer or a similar emulation package to detect tool crashes.ī) The default feed and plunge rates are quite high for most hobby mills. I think a warning would be appropriate, but CB was happy to generate a S0 in the g-code. There were only a few quibbles I found in working on this simple part:Ī) In one case I neglected to enter the spindle speed for a drill operation.

I found it fairly easy to create the toolpaths and g-code for this part (a model engine connecting rod with 2 bearing holes, a lengthwise pocket, and an exterior profile). CamBam is a powerful and the most versatile application for creating and generating CAM files (GCode), it’s used worldwide by pro machinists and engineers Which You Can Download From MasterKreatif. I loaded a simple 2D DXF file that I had created with MasterCam. Today I installed CamBam for the 40 use free trial.
