Hello everybody,
I was wondering how you guys go about milling parts from aluminium and cutting carbon fiber sheets.
I read previous posts about this, but it's still unclear to me, sorry :drool:
Essentially I would like to know a little more about the following:
- do you use industrial grade CNC machines or hobbyist (CNC or not) mills?
- do you use the CNC mills also to cut the carbon fibre sheets?
- what CAD/CAM software?
A little help would be really appreciated, as I would like to produce some prototype parts, and I am trying to investigate how expensive it would be to purchase the necessary machinery...
Thanks!!
