Automatic CAM for 2, 2.5, 3, 3+2 and 5-axis machining WorkNC Dental CAM: CAD/CAM dental software for automatic 3 to 5-axis machining of prosthetic appliances, implants or dental structures Holistic City: Streetscape Pro CAD: tool for creating street sections. CityCAD CAD: A Parametric City Information Modelling tool for Urban Designers and ...
CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.
APT (Automatically Programmed Tool) [1] is a high-level computer programming language most commonly used to generate instructions for numerically controlled machine tools. Douglas T. Ross [ 2 ] is considered by many to be the father of APT: as head of the newly created Computer Applications Group of the Servomechanisms Laboratory at MIT in 1956 ...
Generally 3- or 5-axis CNC milling machines are used for this purpose. The manufacturing process of freeform surfaces is not an easy job, as the tool path generation in present CAM technology is generally based on geometric computation so tool path are not optimum. The geometry can also be not described explicitly so errors and discontinuities ...
A CAM solution based on PowerMILL and FeatureCAM embedded into SolidWorks. Delcam Exchange. A CAD data translator for reading and writing all commonly used CAD format files. Delcam Electrode. An integrated software within PowerSHAPE for automatic generation of solid electrode models for EDM with optional tool path generation in PowerMILL.
A 3-axis clone of a Bridgeport-style vertical milling machine. Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [1] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [2] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [3]
