X and Y Axis Identification and Rotation – CNC for Beginners



X and Y Axis Identification and Rotation
More down here ↓↓↓ Click SHOW MORE!

In this video, I’ll take a step back, return to the basics, and identify two of the three main axes of a CNC router.

I’ve been asked several questions about how to rotate these axes in various CAD/CAM software packages, by people who have a CNC router that is oriented so that the gantry moves along the X axis.

In this video, I’ll show you the basic differences between a Gantry and the X axis in a CAD/CAM environment, as well as on the CNC router itself. I’ll show you how to rotate a design to match the material orientation on the bed of a machine, should the need arise.

As usual, if you have any comments or questions about anything I covered in this video, please put ‘em in the comment section below.

On Sunday, January 19th, I’ll be hosting a LIVE Q&A session, where you can ask your questions pertaining to anything I covered in this video. That Q&A starts at 3 pm Eastern time, Noon Pacific time. Hope to see you there!

Here’s a link to the Live Q&A: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coljL5oWDMM
