Sample machining:
incised engraving on a shape.

Relief projection
for an incised engraving. Description for the production of a circular
inscription in and projection of the engraving on to a 3D shape
(imported STL file). 3D engraving/milling work ca. 30mm x 30mm,
machining using 1 tool (graver).
Generate 2D
graphic.
the data employed can be found in the file VertiefteGravur_081015.SLD.
The file can be loaded using File . Open.
 |
Using
Layout . Limits set the graphic to X = 84.0 mm, Y = 84.0 mm, zero
point centred. |

|
Input auxiliary circles for the machining limits in Layer
#1 .
|

|
Input the inscription in Layer
#0 (e.g. as above).
|
Project the vector graphic onto the shape.
To project the vector data the following work steps are necessary:
-
Provide a relief as projection basis.
-
Project
the vector data onto the relief using Project Vect. and
[carry out] graphic check using Norm/Zoom Projection.
-
Export
the milling data (projected vector data) and save in the format of
your milling machine.
Provide a relief as projection basis.
For the projection,
a relief (shape) must have
been loaded. You generate or load a relief using Relief File . Open or
using Relief
File . Import. If you wish to carry out modifications on the relief (filter,
machining), this must take place before a projection.

|
Load the sample data Basisfläche.STL
using Relief
File .
Import.
|

|
For the projection of vector data on to
the shape select Projection.
|

|
View of the vector data (milling data).
After a projection,
check your result
using Norm/Zoom
Projection.
|
Export
milling data.
For the export of the milling data select
File . Direct mill, the layer with milling data to be exported and the
desired export filter.
