I need 30 RH parts on the top half of the plate, and 30 lh parts on the bottom part of the plate. I will use a 1/8 diameter end mill for the milling. The top surface will have to be milled down to the part. The plate is 11.9 x 11.9 " and .12" thick. THe inserts are .08 thick so there will need to be .040 milled off first operation i think. I prefer a fusion 360 nc program for a tormach 1100 I need a clean, production-ready CNC program for a milling machine cutting steel parts exclusively with 1/8 end-milling operations. You will receive the 3D model (STEP) I prefer a fusion 360 program file The goal is straightforward: maximise tool life and surface finish while keeping cycle time competitive. Please choose efficient toolpaths, apply proper feeds and speeds for steel, and include any recommended adaptive clearing or high-speed strategies if they shorten the cycle without compromising accuracy. Deliverables • G-code compatible with Fanuc-style controllers • Setup sheet showing tools, offsets, coolant requirements, and estimated cycle time • Simulation proof (Fusion 360, Mastercam, or similar) verifying no collisions and a final part within tolerance I will run a dry-run on our machine; if the program cuts air without alarms, the project is accepted. Minor tweaks after the first run are part of the job.

Hi leonardk26, I recently completed a similar project successfully and I can show you that as a sample. With your project details in mind, I am thrilled to dive in! Your requirements indicate a great focus on precision and efficiency, which excites me. To maximize tool life, have you considered using a specialized coating on your end mills? This can significantly enhance durability when cutting steel. Additionally, optimizing your toolpaths by leveraging trochoidal milling techniques can further improve surface finish and reduce cycle time. Maintaining proper chip evacuation will be crucial for uninterrupted milling operations, ensuring smooth production runs. Lastly, for a fine balance between speed and accuracy, exploring the benefits of high-speed machining strategies could offer a competitive edge in achieving exceptional results. I look forward to delivering a CNC program that not only meets but exceeds your expectations. Let's create precision together. My portfolio is uploaded here and on my website. Best Regards, Sid

THIS IS NOT AN AUTO/AI BID!! Hey, I have carefully reviewed your project and I understand the need for a precise Fusion 360 NC program optimized for steel machining using a 1/8 end mill on your Tormach 1100. I will create toolpaths that prioritize tool life, surface finish, and efficiency by applying adaptive clearing and high speed machining strategies where appropriate, along with correct feeds, speeds, and stepdowns tailored for steel. The workflow will include roughing the plate to the required depth, finishing the top surface, and accurately pocketing for RH and LH parts with consistent tolerances. I will provide clean Fanuc style G code, a detailed setup sheet including tool offsets, coolant use, and estimated cycle time, plus a simulation proof to confirm safe and collision free operations. I am confident this program will dry run flawlessly and minimize the need for post adjustments. Best regards, Muskan
