I USED CORELDRAW 8-9-10 AND HAVE DIFFERENT RESULTS WITH THE SAME FILE EVERY TIME. DRAW THE FILE AND SELECT ALL AND CONVERT TO CURVES, YOU MIGHT HAVE TO EXPLODE IT FIRST?. SAVE THE FILE AS A CDR, THE REOPEN IT THEN EXPORT AS A DXF ORĢ. WHEN USING COREL YOU HAVE TO DO 1 OF 2 THINGS FIRSTġ. MOST CAD PROGRAMS WILL LET YOU USE FILL COLORS AND LET YOU PRINT IT I think I should still design in coreldraw as I can quickly and easily create and print out color roughs, proofs and design presentations, right? Thanks for your comments in advance as I haven't seen a specific project discussed from start to finish yet. Then I would finish, assemble and collect the check, right? This approach would be the quickest, easiest and most efficient (money-making) way to approach this job, right? I would export that to Millwizard () and create that, right? Next I would create my trout in a 3d modeling program (even a crude trout would be better than my hand carving skills and quaint, besides). I would do the 2d carving job seperately from the v-bit carving because of the bit change (and v-bit carving specific software), correct? Upon receiving the job I can convert type to curves, convert all objects to lines without fill and export as a dxf, right?įor the 2d carving I could import the dxf into Turbocad (or what?) and create the toolpaths, hog-outs and bit offsets, right? I think I should still design in coreldraw as I can quickly and easily create and print out color roughs, proofs and design prsentations, right? So, mostly 2d letter carving, hogging out, v-bit carving small (less than 3') type and some 3d accents (like borders, objects (like a trout, for instance) that can be appliqued on one sign. We are a small sign shop and want to offer an alternative to sandblasted signs which are 2d signs.
It's best to have a clear end goal instead of making it up as you go.OK, I've down a little homework here in prep for our shopbot which is on order.
Go to the motor controller box and use that info to determine what driver you need. How many pumps can run at one time? That gives you the specifics of that block. EG -the pump block-requires "x" number of pumps "y" Volts and "z" Amps. Break each box down and start getting specifics. You need to start with the uController and determine what direction the data is going. Bonus for flashing the one being dispensed Of course cool led colors illuminating the liquids. A means of shutting it down if something goes awry.A means of knowing if the liquid is empty is nice too.
Don't keep throwing those shots on the floor. Something to determine if a glass is under the pump. Motors needed to drive pumps, and something to drive motors. Something is needed to receive those inputs. Is is just shots, or multiple shots of different liquids? (pump for each) (input pad) How will the system be turned on? Certainly a bartender would have it on all night, but your dad (I hope) doesn't require a drink every couple minutes There's plenty missing, and some that doesn't matter (or is misnamed).
