Fabrizio Cimò

Fabrizio Cimò is an Italian engineer who has always had a passion for the world of 3D graphics and design. During his first degree in industrial design, he started uploading video lessons covering 3D modeling tools such as Rhinoceros, Blender, and Fusion 360 on his YouTube channel. Sometime later, Autodesk noticed his work and asked him to keep promoting Fusion 360 as an official student ambassador. During this time, he also joined Dynamis PRC, a racing team from Milano PT competing in the Formula SAE championship; thanks to this experience and his avid curiosity, he improved his knowledge of the manufacturing world. Today, Fabrizio works as a machine designer for an important company in the laser-cutting sector.

Summary

At first, we discovered why it is so important to start with a facing operation, then, using Sandvik CoroPlus, we could get all the cutting parameters to implement.

After this introduction, we deeply described all the options for the Facing command. This is very important because, as we are about to discover, there are many other turning and milling strategies that we will implement to machine our part, but they will all look and work in the same way.

Once we completed our first operation, we discovered how to simulate our tool and how to check for errors; since we couldn’t spot any, we moved forward with postprocessing up to the G-code generation.

It is fair to say that all the efforts we spent on these pages on such a simple facing operation will be worth it time and time again.

Now that we’ve got an idea of a typical workflow with CAM operations, we can move forward with more complex machining strategies.

In the next chapter, we will keep machining...
