Frankly speaking what fascinate me to make a indexer for my machine??... This story begins with the day when i joined CNCzone Forum... One of the guy their working on its 4th axis created a BEAR head on wood...He posted the picture of machined head stand aside with its computer monitor... and that was the really great work i ever seen.. i downloaded that picture and saw it many time that day...
At that time i was very new to CNC machine.. i never built my CNC machine at that time..i was just collecting the pictures, ideas and reading the posts of zone members... its a really great website for all of us with zeal of working with CNC....
The complete time for Roughing 13 Minutes and Finishing pass took 1 Hr
and 13Minutes...The stepover and tolerance were kept high so the quality was not come out great.. but this is in my hand.. The main was i know how to create efficient 4th axis toolpath..
If i decrease the stepover and tolerance values..you will see the quality, details and real beauty of it..
