Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] alphacam

Andrew,

Send me a note off line. I am a dealer for AlphaCam and I will help you.
Fortunately it is very easy.

Once you have the geometry, move it to where you want your 0,0 point.

Under machine options, select your tool and then the direction of cut
(inside or outside).

Then click on rough or finish and follow the instructions.
