Hello, i got a qustion about the process of machining with the 4th axis:
The axis of the machine run simultaneously, with the exeption of the Y-Axis.
The Y-Axis goes in steps, which can be configured via Luban.
In this mode there are many objects that i would like to machine are not possible. Parts like helical gears and so on.
Is there any chance that Luban get’s a “full” cnc mode?
Because 4th axis isn’t included in the free fusion360 version.
You can do like 3.5 axis stuff Rotary Module with Fusion360: It works! (good enough) (mill, rotate, mill rotate…) but no continuous rotation while milling.
And if you are paying for Fusion360, there’s a good chance you’re not using a snapmaker
I know this is heavy to expect, but if somebody buys a Snapmaker 2.0 with most of the availible Modules, and the the CNC-Mode of the machine ist somewhat restricted, that is a point of disapointment.
All the parts costs a lot of money (and that’s okay from the Hardware-Quality) and when the machine and software looses at this point it’s pretty disapointing.
The machine is perfectly capable of it. It’s the software that comes with the machine that’s not. As a rule, the sellers of CNC gear don’t toss in a CAD/CAM program with the machine; it’s up to user to already have that. SM tried to claim Luban was up to it; it’s not.
