CAM laser cutting

Module overview

Learn to create a CAM setup for laser cutting or waterjet cutting.  You’ll learn to select and edit a digital tool, define its cutting parameters, and set up the toolpaths to cut parts.  You’ll validate toolpath motion with simulation and generate setup sheets and export code to a machine.

After completing this module, you’ll be able to: 

• Create a CAM setup for 2-axis cutting. 
• Define stock and WCS. 
• Create 2-axis cutting toolpaths. 
• Use Simulation to validate toolpaths. 
• Post Process a 2-axis cutting setup.
