WHAT IS CAM?

This question could be answered, and sometimes is, with reams of interesting words and pages of high tech jargon. It would be safe to say, if you wanted to, you could find enough magazines and books on the subject to last a lifetime of really boring reading. So we will make this as simple as possible. Or lets say this is our opinion of CAM.

CAM Computer Aided Manufacturing, in some cases the manufacturing of parts, fixture gauges, stamping dies, prototype models, moulds etc. The relation to Mach9 Technologies Inc. is not so much Manufacturing but more Computer Aided.

CAM the use of computer generated 3D models,see CAD, to develop specific programs for any particular solid object. Creating a program, cutter path, for an Numeric Control (NC) machine is the most widely used format for cutting various forms, shapes and contours into various materials such as steel, aluminum, tool board, wood, and machinable waxes. There are many other ways to cut materials which are computer controlled as well, and these processes are highly sophisticated in each of their aspects. NC machines are everywhere producing products every day.
