2. PowerMILL - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerMILL

   PowerMill is a 3D CAM solution that runs on Microsoft Windows for the programming of toolpaths for 5-axis CNC (Computer Numerical Control) milling machines developed by Autodesk Inc. The software is used in a range of different engineering industries to determine optimal tool paths to reduce time and manufacturing costs as well as reduce tool ...

3. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   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.

4. Delcam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delcam

   A CAM solution for the programming of tool paths for 2 to 5 axis CNC Milling (Computer Numerical Control). PowerINSPECT A CAD based inspection solution package for use with many types of inspection hardware, [ 12 ] including manual and CNC CMMs, portable arms, optical measuring devices and CNC machine tools (OMV).

5. Digital modeling and fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_modeling_and...

   CNC machines are classified according to the number of axes that they possess, with 3, 4 and 5 axis machines all being common, and industrial robots being described with having as many as 9 axes. CNC machines are specifically successful in milling materials such as plywood, plastics, foam board, and metal at a fast speed. CNC machine beds are ...

6. Freeform surface machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeform_surface_machining

   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 ...

7. CNC router - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_router

   In addition, CNC routers may have accessories such as vacuum pumps, with grid table tops or t-slot hold down fixtures to hold the parts in place for cutting. CNC routers are typically available in 3-axis and 5-axis CNC formats. Many manufacturers offer A and B axis for full 5-axis capabilities and rotary 4th axis.

8. LinuxCNC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinuxCNC

   LinuxCNC is a software system for numerical control of machines such as milling machines, lathes, plasma cutters, routers, cutting machines, robots and hexapods.It can control up to 9 axes or joints of a CNC machine using G-code (RS-274NGC) as input.

9. 2.5D (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D_(machining)

   Drilling and tapping operations are also possible on a 2.5-axis mill. 2.5D objects can be machined on a 3-axis milling machine, and do not require any of the features of a higher-axis machine to produce. CNC machines use G-code and M-code in order to control the machine and the positioning of the spindle. Canned cycles use G-code to machine ...
