- Jason's been busy prepping for the big FABTECH show on November 11-14, 2019 in Chicago's McCormick Place. He's making all sorts of demo parts and checking that they'll be cutting well.
Tormach Engineer's needed a prototype bracket to test a product, and they needed it quickly. The part they gave him had some extra challenges that he had to fix within Fusion 360, before he could start cutting it. Firstly, Fusion came up with some inefficient tool paths, so Jason had to go in and fix the order of operations. It originally started pocketing out the part, but that was inefficient. Jason prefers coming from the outside of the part, which is better for chip removal. The bracket, cut on aluminum billet, called for a slot, but that would create inefficient toolpaths once the g-code was generated. Since he planned on just slotting it out on a bandsaw afterwards, Jason eliminated the slot. These changes produced a great toolpath that quickly turned around the part.
You may want to follow along to catch some tips Jason uses to get the great results from these brackets.
