PartMaker SwissCAM Advanced

We will cover the fundamentals of 3 axis 3D milling on a Swiss lathe with PartMaker SwissCAM using Y and C axis machining methods.
Y-Axis: 3D Raster Milling Basics

In this step we will review the fundamentals of surface machining and make a raster finishing toolpath on a complex blends.
