The tool moves to a set Z position before moving in the X and Y directions, i.e. in 2 axis. This is similar to the laser cutter however with the added ability to set a precise the depth of the cut. An example of 2 axis milling could be used on is a piece of furniture with interlocking parts.
1. Set layer to required machine operation. 2. Insert or create geometry. 3. Position geometry as per instructions in Chapter 3, allow 20mm offset from edges. 4. Check geometry properties for correct layer. 5. Enter required parameters into Layer Name, overwriting the relevant text.
COMMON MISTAKES:
• Control geometry incorrectly placed • Layer name not modified • Incorrect layer selection
