Abstract
- Many machine shops are realizing the benefits of using computer numerical control (CNC) systems dedicated for 3D contouring work. In choosing which, systems to adopt, however, shops need to carefully consider different factors. One of the most important factors to consider is data transmission rate of 3D contouring CNC systems. Given the huge volume of data being processed for each job, CNC systems need ample data transmission rates to ensure cycle efficiency and accuracy.<br />More and more companies are finding it necessary to machine complex three-dimensional shapes. With the increasing availability of excellent and relatively easy-to-use computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems capable of generating 3D [...]
