Siemens NX CAD CAM Post Builder + Autodesk Inventor CAD CAM

Explore 3 axis rough operations with blank milling, a plan milling variant distinct from cavity milling. Configure step over, step ahead, and maximum cut width to generate and verify toolpaths.

Learn 3-axis face milling and face milling manual, including boundary selection, zigzag and contour patterns, and per-surface cut control across multiple faces.

Master a three-axis finish operation with the z level profile in Siemens NX CAD CAM Post Builder and Autodesk Inventor CAD CAM, following rough milling steps to smooth vertical faces.

Learn how to perform 3 axis finish operations for corners, applying z level corner finish with reference to the rough operation and cavity mill paths to ensure precise corner finishing.

Master three axis finish operations by applying fixed contour, contour area, and streamline methods to finish specific areas and analyze non-steep versus steep surfaces with angle-based criteria.

Master multi axis finish operations by configuring tool X and rotation axes for four and five axis machining, defining X, Y, Z angles to access positions and generate tool paths.

Execute multi axis finish operations at z level for a five-axis workflow, define the workpiece and its length, and set two points with 30-degree angles to finish the part.

Learn to control cut levels in Siemens NX CAD CAM by adjusting per-range cut depths, managing multiple ranges, and adding new ranges to tailor machining for different parts.

Master cut levels and ranges in NX CAD CAM Post Builder and Autodesk Inventor CAD CAM, control dips per range, and shape ridges for efficient material removal.

Learn methods to create blanks and tools in nx cad cam post builder and autodesk inventor cad cam, including offset blank, bounding block, and tool parameter setup or library retrieval.

Learn to define turning workpieces from blank stock, set stock dimensions, and sequence turning operations, including facing, drilling, and outer roughing, with tool configuration, cut regions, and G-code generation.

Learn to use the post builder to customize cnc code for a 3-axis milling machine, adapting g-code for Siemens and Heidenhain controls.

Open the post builder for Fanuc, save as, extract, and compare samples; modify start and end programs, adjust M codes and coolant, then test and save.

Explore drilling operations in Siemens NX CAD CAM and Autodesk Inventor CAD CAM through spot drilling, threaded holes, countersinking, and counterboring with practical tool setup and operation sequencing.

Define the path and design for a six-blade setup, create multiple geometry from the workpiece, and generate multi-blade operations with rough and finish passes for post processing.

Learn hole milling and thread milling using a cam post builder, defining geometry and controlling axial and radial movement, depth, and step over to generate toolpaths.

Explore groove milling in Siemens NX CAD CAM workflows, using group geometry selection and generation of a groove milling operation, with adjustable passes for a complete milling strategy.

Learn how to create sketches in NX using automatic dimensions and constraints, including rapid dimensions, geometric constraints, tangent and perpendicular relationships, and alignment tools.
