Are you looking for an efficient way to operate a CNC mill without the need for complex CAD software? In this episode, SV Seeker shows us how to bypass CAD and use the Tormach 770 Conversational feature instead. This approach allows beginners and experienced users alike to start working on their projects quickly and efficiently.
Sitting vessel Seeker recently mounted a Captain Sher on their boat. This involved creating a custom block using their Tormach CNC mill. Although CAD skills are highly beneficial in CNC milling, the conversational feature on Tormach PathPilot offers an alternative way to program and operate the machine without using CAD.
To begin, SV Seeker emphasizes the importance of ensuring that edges are parallel and perpendicular. In this case, the block had saw-cut edges that were not perfectly aligned. By straightening these edges using a fly cutter on the CNC mill, the user can create a more accurate and consistent base for their project.
The real highlight of this video is how to use Tormach’s conversational feature on their PathPilot software to operate the CNC mill without CAD. The conversational interface guides users through selecting different features, such as pocketing and drilling, by entering simple parameters.
In addition to the conversational feature, SV Seeker also demonstrates how to adjust feeds and speeds for different tools while cutting materials. This ensures that each project is completed with precision and care.
To drill a hole for the pipe, the user must determine its dimensions by measuring it first. They then enter these measurements into the conversational interface to create an accurate hole.
Finally, tapping aluminum is demonstrated using a Jacobs Chuck and the correct drill bit. The user must ensure that the drill bit aligns perfectly with the hole they’ve created before proceeding.
To sum up, SV Seeker demonstrates an accessible and user-friendly method of using a CNC mill that doesn’t rely on advanced knowledge of CAD software. By employing Tormach 770’s conversational feature, one can start creating custom projects with confidence.
