Webinar: Organic Shapes, Simple Programming: Mill-Turn Machining Without the Dark Magic

Complex sculpted geometry doesn’t have to mean complex CAM programming.

Just in time for Halloween, Gerry Grainger will program a special spooky item live in ENCY: a jack-o’-lantern pumpkin designed to fit over a CNC machine’s status lamp. From setup to full machine simulation, you’ll see how turning and milling come together on a mill-turn machine to produce a highly organic shape, with programming that stays simple.

What you’ll see

  • Setting up the part on a mill-turn machine
  • Building the tooling with the new Tool Assemblies in ENCY
  • Turning and milling in a single project
  • Simultaneous multi-axis toolpaths for organic shapes
  • Full machine simulation and collision checking
  • Live Q&A: bring your questions

Who it’s for

CNC programmers, machinists and manufacturing engineers working with mill-turn machines, and anyone interested in how modern CAM handles complex geometry.
