The entire basic training course is based from the default layout.įrom the Window pull down menu, choose Reset Layout, next click on Standard.ĪrtCAM opens up displaying the 2D view, with the Relief displayed in the 3D View.
In case you have moved or customised your layout, we will revert to the default installation layout. The Layout The following pages show the layout of ArtCAM Pro. The resolution should be around 1500 x 1500 points and make sure the origin is in the bottom left corner. Set the Units to mm, Height and Width to 300mm or Set the Units to Inches, Height and Width to 12 The trade-off with having a high resolution can normally result in larger file sizes, calculation and machine cutting times.ĭecide whether you will work in inches or metric.
If a higher resolution is chosen, the model is broken into many more pixels and therefore the fine detail can be shown in the relief. The first relief uses a low resolution, which means a loss of fine detail in the resulting 3D relief. Each square is given a height in ArtCAM dependent upon the command used. Resolution The dragon model shows the 2D view of the model broken up into a number of squares (pixels). A height of 100 mm with a resolution of 1000 gives 10 bitmap squares per millimetre this is an example of an average resolution.
If you are working with very fine delicate detail, the resolution should be a high value. The resolution is the total number of squares or pixels for each axis. Projects are a more advanced option for working with multiple assemblies in a 3D world.Ī new model must be given a size to work in, an origin position and a resolution. To start working, a new model can be created, an existing model can be opened, or an image file can be opened. The initial screen that appears is called the Start Up screen. The toolpaths can then be simulated to allow complete visualisation of the product before machining.ĭouble click the ArtCAM icon on the desktop. Multiple toolpaths are easily generated for roughing, finishing and engraving. Once a 3D relief has been created, toolpaths can be generated to machine it.
ArtCAM can also import 3D Surface data, which is translated on entry or after as a Relief model.ĪrtCAM Pro contains tools for editing the reliefs and combining stored reliefs. These vectors and bitmaps can be generated within ArtCAM or imported from other systems. Once out of the building, make your way to the grass verge outside the main reception area and await instructions.ĪrtCAM Pro allows complex reliefs (ArtCAM 3D models) to be created quickly and easily from 2D vectors (ArtCAM Wireframe) or bitmaps (Image files).
