FabriCAM Software Loop Cutting Clean Corners (Part 3) Step by Step Video Tutorial

Next up on our advanced CAM configuration settings we will be covering the Loop Cut.

With the Loop Cut feature we will be able to get some very nice and clean corners when cutting.

This video is part of a Mini-Series.

Alright, guys, in today's video in fabric cam, we're gonna be looking at some cam settings for looping your edges of your actual cuts or should I say the corners of your cuts. But before that, let's have a quick intro first, so today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za. We make short and easy to watch problem solving videos, and we also have daily updates. Otherwise, we back into the programme here now, Like I mentioned today's video, we're gonna be looking at some, uh, looping features or the looping for the, um, not edges, but the actual corners when it's cutting. And this is great. If you wanna get a bit of a smoother cut on your edges because they not so much distortion, then you might want to use this feature. So in order to do that, I've just got a basic, uh, sheet here. I'm just gonna quickly nest some shapes say accept, move these to the centre. So now currently, I go into Cam and I zoom in here. You guys can see that all these edges will pretty much you'll be cutting to the edge and then cutting up which for most, uh, cases is gonna be fine. But if you want to have a very clean corner over here, then you might want to use some looping. So now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go out of Cam, go to configuration, and then on the fourth tab a cam tab, I'm gonna go over here and then just navigate here to the right, the bottom where you see loop. Now you can activate that and also set the amount of how far the loop is gonna be going. At the moment, it's five millimetres, which will be fine for the tutorial. So I'm gonna say apply OK, and then what we're gonna do is go back to Cam and now you'll notice everywhere where we don't have a lead in and out because the lead in and out will also do a clean cut. We have this loop. So now once it comes down here, it's gonna loop around and carry on cutting over there. So it gives us a nice, smooth, um, corner over there and you'll see it does it to all the corners. Um, other than the one with the lead in and out, So it's pretty handy. And, uh yeah, so that is it on loop. So just a recap. It will be on the configuration. Go to Cam or the Cam tab, and then you activate it here by loop. It's gonna leave mine off for now, but yeah, that is a very nice, uh, feature to use from the cam features. But in the meanwhile, if we head here to softwaretraining.co.za guys will notice it. We've got a variety of different Softwares you do cover, and you can also isolate your search on the top, right? If you do not, however, find the training videos you're looking for, just simply go. Yeah, request the training video, fill in the mini form, and then we'll do our best to try and make that for you. But otherwise thanks, guys, for watching and cheers
