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

That concludes this chapter! It may have seemed quite complex due to the introduction and usage of WCS offsets, but it is way simpler than it sounds; we will clarify this process in the next few chapters. Also, despite being a book oriented to CAM novices, the part we are trying to machine is quite complex and up until now has offered several examples of analysis that will come in handy in our daily machining.

To recap what we learned, first, we discovered the part we have to machine with our CNC. Then, using the drawing, we analyzed the part to understand the best setup strategy. After that, we analyzed the needed placements to be able to machine the entire geometry and discovered the best solution to hold the part during the second placement. Finally, we created two setups that will be used in the following chapters for our milling operations.

In Chapter 9, we will learn how to implement several milling strategies, such as face milling, shoulder milling, drilling, and...
