AI Programs My Roughing Passes Like That?! | Machine Shop Talk Ep.132

Описание: In this video, Ian Sandusky from Lakewood Machine & Tool puts the latest CloudNC CAM Assist update to the test - and this time, it’s all about roughing.

The new Optimized Roughing feature uses AI to generate toolpaths automatically — and Ian’s honest take? It actually worked better than expected. From tighter tool engagement to cleaner, more logical paths, CAM Assist is starting to rough like a real machinist would… or at least a semi-competent one.

Ian walks through a real part setup using Mastercam and shows exactly how CAM Assist thinks, cuts, and finishes. If you’ve been skeptical about AI in CAM, this might change your mind — or at least make you curious.

What Ian Covers:
• CloudNC CAM Assist’s new roughing logic
• Programming that actually makes sense
• Where AI helps — and where it still needs us

👇 Drop a comment if you'd use AI to handle your roughing passes — or if you're still team manual.
