CNC
How do you need the files for CNC routing?
CAD files should be sent, as complete as possible, without nesting, as a single 2D CAD generated .DXF .DWG or IGES file. Just one example of each variation should be sent with an annotation showing machining depths or quantities required. Only the required machined parts should be represented on the file. If a CAD generated file is not possible, please feel free to send a picture file or drawing but this must make clear all dimensions, radii etc.
What files do you except for the CNC?
We can work with CAD Generated DXF and DWG files.
