    Learning CAM, need some 3D models to practice with.

    Hi to you all, just getting into the 3D side of CAM and I have access to FeatureCam 2013 and OneCNC XR4 Professional but the shop where I work doesn't do any 3D work so we don't have any 3D models. I want to learn the 3D side of CAM software for my own development so could anyone be kind enough to post a few IGES or STP models of components or know any links to any so I can get some practice.

    Many Thanks

    I think Featurecam has examples ready built in their software. Have you checked the example folder in Delcam directory?

    Try these guys. A lot of it is highly rendered for show kind of stuff but they do have many industrial parts.
