Fabber was absolutely an integral part of this project. After the 12 Month Subscription expires, you will automatically be switched over to a monthly subscription with Carveco.

12-months maintenance, including software updates, product enhancements and dedicated support.

That's time I just don't have, unless you'd be willing to start paying me a full time salary to work on it. You should make sure that you have enough bandwidth and storage for the block chain size (7GB). More fool us for trusting in there apparently free application.Carveco full download The finish took about 30-40 minutes including drying time. I knew it wouldnt be long before autodesk started to take the toys away. Fusion 360 is going to stop importing and translating these files, also exporting files from the cloud will be restricted. (Dassault being European and Autodesk being American). for some reason being an American site nearly all the files are in solidworks file formats. I tend to obtain parts from grabcad as its easire to get bearings, gears etc from guys who have already drawn them up.

Great thanks guys - wait until you grbl guys try exporting files from Fusions cloud to your PC, its going to be fun. Second they have now removed the file translators from the free/student version. slowly going through Lars Christians turtorials on youtube (he works for autodesk).

I have always sketched my designs using basic drafting tools in Autocad, creating regions and then extruding my solid parts - i have not quite figured out how to do it in fusion yet. Good luck!įusion 360 does my tits in for two reasons There is other other software for isolation milling you might want to take a look at, some more recent than others, such as Line Grinder or FlatCAM.

due to the previous point, it also cannot handle "rounded rectangle" pads that have recently become popular (which seem to get implemented as tiny filled zones in Gerbers), so if Altium is using those, you'll have a problem (although this might not be limited to GCAM alone).

it cannot handle filled zones, so if you have any of those, it's not going to work for you.

it cannot handle DXF files, so if you also want it to mill the PCB outline you will have to either convert that to SVG (which GCAM can read) or you will have to (re)draw the PCB outline in GCAM manually.

However, it also has some limitations to keep in mind if you intend to go that route: GCAM can help you with that, as it can take Gerber output from other software and create g-code to produce the PCB.

I assume you intend to use CNC isolation milling to produce PCBs designed in Altium. I'd go for a break out box and mach3 ,but most don't support usb,so that's out,at least for now.Īny solutions to getting g-code to grbl without crashing in a relatively easy manner would help in a big way. The intermediate unit will need to work at least a 17" x 2" brass front panels i want to etch/engrave. I have 5 tbm6600s, 3 nema 17s ,3 acme T8 lead screws to make a small machine before i go to a unit big enough to make a neck and a body. I'm learning on a cd-rom 3 axis ,which will be using end stops and a laser,it has a pen and i'll be fitting a dc motor to simulate a spindle ,basically a small version 3 axis to get to grips with this learning curve.

I need to upgrade to win10 as the vista OS seems to be lacking in some areas such as new software compatibility. I also use Tina design suite for circuit simulation and pcb design,so i have used cad,though i've never exported gerber to make the pcbs,which is another thing to do. nc files.and it seems rather convoluted to go from say a jpeg to. I have a question in two parts,i want to make a les paul style guitar with an arduino ,grbl shield v3(or later) based 3 axis cnc,this particular guitars body has compound curves and deep neck pocketing i think this is 2.5D,i can buy g-code files with body and neck design files,what would be the easiest route to do this,from a cad/cam perspective,at present using inkscape i can only get the grbl controller to work with.
