CAD/CAM CNC Software Salient Characteristics 25 Feb 2022

CAD/CAM software. Solid and surface CAD/CAM system for designing parametric models, and CNC machining. It must have toolpath capabilities to machine complex shapes efficiently and accurately. It must also offer the ability to inspect parts during the machining process and re-machine areas that are out of tolerance. Additionally, it must have the ability to detect broken tools during the machining process and alarm the machine if a tool is broken. Software must include the following features and meet the following specifications:

Details

· Multi-surface machining up to 3-axis, to include but not limited to design, engrave, Rast2Vec, nesting, and solids.

· Multi-surface 5-axis roughing and finishing, including stock model awareness.

· Tilt axis limits control the tool angle to ensure the toolpath will not gouge your part or violate machine tool limits.

· Advanced gouge-checking and a 5-axis safe zone around the part help ensure safe cuts in even the most complex operations.

· Support for advanced tool geometries.

· Complete control over three crucial elements of multi-axis machining: cut pattern, tool axis control, and collision avoidance.

· Program and simulate a Renishaw probe for machine tool.

· Perform measurements and alignments to set up and validate your parts at the machine tool.

· Tool-pathing for complex shapes and faster run times.

· Haas UMC 750 Post Processor with full machine simulation.

· No cloud-based 3D modeling software. Software needs to be able to run on a stand-alone computer.

· No annual subscriptions

· Technical Support

· Access to regional training

· Software vetted for Air Force use

· Annual Maintenance for Multi-Axis
