Hi, I am just completing a 5th rotary axis - a rotary table to be the 'C' axis? parallel to the 'Z' axis - for my little cnc mill. How should I go about programming for it? What software would be best to use or will I have to program everything in longhand? I want to use it for milling or grinding delicate cylindrical components which have integral cams and for engraving such things as watch dials so I need control of the 'X','Y', and 'Z' axes at the same time. Is anyone aware of any tutorials on the web? - a Google search has drawn a blank. Thanks, Ian  |
