Viscam View

VisCAM is the ideal software solution for the complete preparation of your STL files for Rapid Prototyping. Moreover VisCAM offers you optimized solutions for all steps of the RP build preparation.

How to use it?

You have to check on the chart of info if it does have unmatched edges... this is important because if you have unmatched edges you cant print. your tolerance of holes and edges is around 20. (viscamview helps you to see if your modeling object its close)

note: for the cnc is not that important because it only work with surfaces.

The program show you where are the inperfections that you must change.s

Set up the machine and ur model make sure that "roland 650" its conected.
make sure that the fale is saved in stl open your file
now you can visualize yur modeling in 3 views.
-In this case your working with mdf .. so choose the materail you are going to work with .. in case of mdf is chemical wood (soft)
-Configure your model. and opne window with info. verify your scale. ( units)
-You have to select the origin of the part. always in the middle.
-Now select how would the machine will work. this machine work with 4 axis.... (it kind of turn the object backward)


-Choose your tolerances. In the depth that will be trimmed exceeds the lenght of the tools, it is necessary to asaing a slope to avoid damages in the tool or in the machine.

-Prepare your surface. 1.- plane down (creacion de proceso nuevo) choose the drill your are going to use. (6mm)
It is possible to plane down the whole model or only a part of it
( choose interior de "forma de modelado")
Control the depth, where your model starts and finish. on the next section you can move the drill into a x axis, y axis, or both ( for the car model u need to work both)

I think it is important yo know this beacuse its the base for a modeling 3Dprinting, the step that allows us to modify our modeling and verify that is correct before we print it.
