Any given point may be located exactly by plotting its position on the X and Y axes.įor example, point A below is at point X = 2, Y = 1, or (2, 1). This is the common number line system that we can use to plot the location of a point in two dimensions, X and Y. The ProtoTRAK EMX works in the Cartesian coordinate system. Jump to Table of Contents X, Y, Plus (+), Minus (-) Tools: All necessary tools will be located in the yellow toolbox by the Mill. You will also be given a sharpie marker in a holder that is used for the trial run to verify your part.
The material will be given to you when you arrive for your Mill reservation. Parts A & B will be made on the same piece of HDPE stock (one on top face, one on bottom face).
If at any point during the training you have any questions please contact staff. These lab instructions are for the CNC Mill 1 upgrade.
