To ensure the text appears as a 3D carved or raised object rather than just a path, you must manage your settings:
: For "solid" characters that aren't just single lines, you can use: Contour Milling : To cut around the outer edge of letters.
In CNC Simulator Pro , creating (milled or engraved characters) is primarily handled through the integrated SimCam CAD/CAM module. This allows you to generate text and convert it directly into the G-code required for 3D simulation. Key Methods for Milling Text
: Instead of manually writing G-code, SimCam allows you to draw or import text and then use the Postprocess feature to automatically generate the simulation code. Solid Simulation Settings
: Use the dedicated Milling Text option within the SimCam interface to input text, select fonts, and set parameters like depth and position.
: To hollow out the center of characters for a recessed look.
: Use the Knife icon (workspace cutting panel) to section your part and verify the interior depth of your solid text carvings. Best Practices
