Standard Feature Overview

 

Profile Cutting enables the milling of any contour, with multiple settings for tool radius correction.

Face Cutting is essential for nearly all jobs, to accurately skim the top face of a part.

Lace Cutting generates parallel tool paths that are ideal for simpler pocket definitions.

Contour Orientated pocketing is ideal for maching complex pockets using short tool paths.

Rest Material automatically re-machines material remaining after roughing operations.

Centre Line automatically machines remaining material when using large tool stepovers (e.g. 85%).

Trochoidal milling enables substantially increased feed rates and reduces tool retraction.

T-Slot tooling enables the quick machining of undercut areas on 2.5D prismatic parts.

Multiple Blocks enable identical features to be programmed once and repeated in pattern arrays.

5 Axis (3+2) multisided machining using a single setup for 5 axis prepositioned milling and drilling.

Tombstone programming enables multiple operations on multi parts to be arranged on a tombstone.

Laser, Plasma and Water Jet
uses special profiling operations and functions for laser and plasma cutting.

Engraving / Carving techniques are essential for wood working, jewellry, electrodes and signage.

NC Code Generation is automatic when using one of the many standard post processors.

NC Work Sheets provide operators with information such as tooling, operations and machining times.

 

Additional Standard Features  

Feature Recognition
Feature recognition automatcially identifies pocket and hole features on 2D and 3D CAD geometry.
Ready Made Strategies
Ready made CAM strategies enable the user to instantly apply preferred methods of machining.
Post Processor Generator
The post processor generator is a tool for experienced users to create and modify post processors.

Feed and Speed Calculator
Correct feeds and speeds can be calculated depending upon factors such as feed per tooth.

Free Software Support
All customers receive free software support directly with our software development team.

No Yearly Maintenance Costs
There are no yearly maintenance costs attached to any of our CAD/CAM solutions.
