The RAVEN is a servo system. That means that each axis has a sensor called an encoder that tracks the movement of the axis. The on-board computer commands each axis to move a certain distance over a certain interval of time and then compares the actual distance traveled (by reading the encoder) to the distance […]
The Vector Group feature, included in the Vcarve Suite, allows users to create vector pockets two different bits for the edge and interior area of vector shapes.
The Pocket Region tool utilizes a selected bit to rout out a designated region (closed vector shape) at a single set depth to spiral in or out a pocket with no islands.
This tutorial covers the basics of laying out a simple project to get familiar with the user interface and essential tools.
This tutorial expands on the project in part 1 by adding a background and learning about project optimization.
This video covers how to design a basic sign and optimize it for carving.
The warp tool allows for the bending and warping of objects in Designer.
Create with the ease and power of Designer and compile G-code for use with any CNC machine. The demo of Designer will allow users to compile the Decorative Ornamental Box project as a free trial.
The EdgeDetect process ensures accurate indexing of your board edges for the quick project positioning. This process will appear between the board positioning and load bit screen where it asks for the actual bit.
