The first tutorial in this series described how to create a simple solid model of a compact camera using Pro/DESKTOP. This tutorial uses the MiniCAM CAD interface from Delcam and the VR CNC Milling software from Denford to produce a manufactured model of the camera design.

 
  1: Exporting a Sterio Lithography file from Pro/DESKTOP
 

2: Importing a Sterio Lithography file into MiniCAM Open the DelCAM MiniCAM software

 

3: Denford VR CNC Milling Software Interface

  4: Delcam MiniCAM flowchart
  5: Denford VR CNC milling software flowchart part1
  6: Denford VR CNC milling software flowchart part 2
   
     


The tutorial will cover the following learning outcomes:

Exporting a Sterio Lithography file (STL) from Pro/DESKTOP
Importing a STL file into MiniCAM
Calculating toolpaths in MiniCAM
Simulating a manufactured outcome in MiniCAM
Saving a toolpath as a Denford fnc file
