At this point in our lesson, we've completely programmed our part and are ready to save NC Code and send it to the machine.
00:15
Just like in lesson 1, we've just ran a simulation.
00:19
We want to navigate to the NC Code tab, the results fly-out, verify the code that we've just created.
00:26
Make any hand edits if you'd like.
00:29
And once you're satisfied, select Save NC.
00:33
Select the directory you'd like to save to.
00:36
Remember to always have NC program checked, otherwise, you won't be getting your NC code, as well as any of the other options.
00:43
In this case, let's maybe include an operations list.
00:47
With those two selected, I'll hit "OK".
00:50
And we've successfully saved our NC Code and our Operations List to our specified directory.
00:56
You're now ready to go machine this part.
00:59
Our second lesson is now complete.
01:01
As you may recall, in the first lesson, we programmed a part from scratch using features from dimensions and features from curves.
01:08
And in this lesson, we imported a solid model and used FeatureCAM’s Feature Recognition to recognize 2.5D features from the solid model itself.
01:19
At this point, after following along with the videos and the text, I would strongly recommend that you go back and program both lesson 1 and lesson 2 on your own without the help of the videos.
01:32
Once you feel comfortable with everything covered in these first two lessons, feel free to move on to our third and final lesson of the FeatureCAM Standard milling course.
