Griffin Studios’ sculptures done in ArtCAM

Computer Aided Manufacturing is not always the prettiest of things: machining lumps of metal for mouldings could be described as ‘a bit ugly’.

This is not always the case, as Delcam seems intent on proving as it launches its dedicated website for ArtCAM, the artistic cousin to metal-shop manliness.

There’s quite a lot of jewellery – including some hefty looking sports competition winner rings as favoured in America (in the UK we simply give our winners a bus parade through a city centre, followed by a sex/drugs scandal in the following week’s tabloids). Other examples include some sculpture, routing and engraving techniques for all manner of creative purposes.
