SURFCAM Features
This foundational module is the most cost-effective and high-performance package for straightforward production needs. It includes a comprehensive library of toolpath strategies specifically dedicated to 2-axis machining operations. Users can efficiently handle tasks such as contouring, drilling, pocketing, and various roughing and finishing cycles for 2D parts.
The 3-axis system delivers a perfect combination of powerful functionality paired with ease of use, enabling users to rapidly program complex 3D surfaces and solids. It provides advanced toolpath control, allowing for smooth and precise material removal on intricate molds, dies, and other three-dimensional components while minimizing cycle times.
This advanced module offers true simultaneous 4- and 5-axis machining capabilities, essential for manufacturing complex, high-value components. The system provides full tool-motion visualization and verification, ensuring collision-free operation and exceptional surface finish. It empowers users to tackle the most challenging positional and continuous multi-axis work.
SURFCAM Lathe provides complete control over every aspect of turning requirements, from initial stock roughing to the final precision finish. This module includes specialized turning toolpaths and cycles for both 2-axis and sub-spindle lathes. It optimizes the process of creating components, ensuring accuracy and consistency across batch production runs.
The Wire EDM module contains three unique cutting strategies designed to meet a variety of electrical discharge machining requirements. Users can efficiently program 2-axis contour cuts, complex 4-axis synchronous shapes, and no-core skim cuts. This functionality provides specialized tools necessary for precision cutting of hardened materials.
