CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.
The most external matrix rotates the other two, leaving the second rotation matrix over the line of nodes, and the third one in a frame comoving with the body. There are 3 × 3 × 3 = 27 possible combinations of three basic rotations but only 3 × 2 × 2 = 12 of them can be used for representing arbitrary 3D rotations as Euler angles. These 12 ...
It is a contraction of "six axis", which refers to the ability to sense motion in all axes of the six degrees of freedom. [ citation needed ] The name is a misnomer because there are only three axes : X, Y, and Z, which allows six degrees of freedom (rotation about each axis and translation along each axis).
