Five-axis CNC machining in DeskProto
Create toolpaths for a 5-axis CNC milling machine
Creating a die by machining it from five sides (DP V7.1, 30 min)
In this video we explain step by step how to use DeskProto for five axis machining. The video starts with a short explanation of 5-axis CNC, and of the type of 5-axis toolpaths that DeskProto supports (the limitations are: only for machines where the part rotates, and only indexed machining). Then the video shows how to create toolpaths for five sides of a simple die, after which the die is machined in PS foam. After this tutorial you will be able to create your own 5-axis toolpaths with DeskProto.
As this needs a five-axis machine it applies only to the Multi-Axis edition of DeskProto.
