CAM is all well and good but operators need to know the long hand code, maths, etc etc for problem solving. I think the industry is still a long way off automated machining. |

The CNC machinery is a mix of CAM and the old analoge systems, my old high school did have cnc lathes that ran on the old cards along with £100k 3 axis cam lathes
this is what the cam software can do (or a varient of the systems)
