I'm new at CNC, but this is by far the best video I've come across as far as tuning for productivity. I've only been using VCarve Pro, and while unsure if tweaking such as this is allowed in VCarve, I'll have to consider trying to incorporate Fusion into more of my products! Thanks!
Thanks Corey! Yes, these concepts apply to VCarve and Aspire as well, specifically toolpath accuracy can be modified via Edit > Options > Toolpath Settings. -Nathan
Vcarve pro is so hard to learn. I did a 45 min video on fusion for 3D printing and it's so intuitive that I picked up a CNC machine 6 months later. I highly recommend it!
Internally we primarily use Fusion 360 and Vectric VCarve & Aspire as our CAD/CAM tools. Both provide an excellent experience for different needs. Fusion as a 3D design and CAM tool and VCarve a very intuitive 2.5D design and CAM program. -Nathan
Hi Chad - Thanks! We design and sell a range of ready-to-assemble industrial CNC machines (for home or production shop) including this one @ www.CNCRouterParts.com. You can learn more about this machine, the PRO4848 (including pricing,etc.), from the product listing on our site --> www.cncrouterparts.com/pro4848-4-x-4-cnc-router-kit-p-251.html. The feedrates in this video are IPM. Let us know if you have any more questions! -Nathan
Excellent video and explanation. Nevertheless: (6:41) "Smoothing-Enabled Program Runs 64% Quicker" is not a correct statement. This statement assumes if the SEP completed the project in 1 second it would be 100% faster, obviously incorrect. In this video example, the non-SEP operation took 2.75 times longer. Or you could say the SEP operation took only 36%, approximately 1/3, of the time the non-SEP took to complete the same project.

Interesting, do you usually work with Fusion 360 for your business?

Very useful! Thank you. (Al Whatmough sent me here from instagram.)
Thanks Morgan, glad to hear it! -Nathan
Thanks!!!
Hi, thanks for the very helpful video. Would you be able to share the Fusion 360 file for the PAC Man you made in this video?I would like to make it.
Thanks for the feedback! Yes, you can download the Fusion 360 file here -> www.thingiverse.com/thing:1831160 -Nathan
Very nice! Where is the machine from? Very fast feedrates also. Is that mm/m or ipm?
