Translations:Path Workbench/3/en

The FreeCAD Path Workbench workflow creates these machine instructions as follows:
 * A 3D model is the base object, typically created using one or more of the Part Design, Part or Draft Workbenches.
 * A Job is created in Path Workbench. This contains all the information required to generate the necessary G-Code to process the Job on a CNC mill: there is Stock material, the mill has a certain set of tools and it follows certain commands controlling speed and movements (usually G-Code).
 * Tools are selected as required by the Job Operations.
 * Milling paths are created using e.g. Contour and Pocket Operations. These Path objects use internal FreeCAD G-Code dialect, independent of the CNC machine.
 * Export the job with a g-code, matching to your machine.
