A CNC mill is a machine that uses rotary cutters to remove material by advancing a cutter into a work piece. This may be done varying direction on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure
We have two tormach CNC mills in the innovation center
Three things that I have learned about the CNC mills are that higher spindle speeds help with machining time, you use a lower spindle speed when machining steel and that you can engrave on a cnc mill.
You use fusion 360 to set up your project in before using the mill
Fusion 360 is a 3D CAD, CAM, and CAE tool , that connects your entire product development process into one cloud-based platform. It allows you to make your project on it.
A summary of what I learned would be that I now know what a CNC means (computer numerical control). I also learned what a cnc mill is used for and how to us it.
If I could make anything on the mill I would make a wooden chair
