5-Axis Machining

5-Axis Positioning
If you have a 5-axis machining center, the new 5-axis
Positioning Option makes minimizing fixturing of 2.5D parts a
snap.
- • Create the 2.5D part and then let
FeatureCAM calculate the rotations and transform the part
coordinates for you.
- • Both horizontal and vertical
machines are supported.
- • Generate the code with respect to
one coordinate system or use a coordinate system for each
face.
- • Supports 5-face machining.

5-Axis Simultaneous Machining
- Includes FeatureCAM's signature straightforward user interface,
simplified and consistent with other FeatureCAM modules
- Accelerates toolpath creation, while still providing
control
- Support for 5-axis milling machines as well as turn/mill
machines
- New toolpath techniques, including 5-axis trim and swarf
milling
- Automatic tool axis control
- Available for parallel, z-level finish, isoline, 3D spiral,
flowline, swarf and 5-axis trim
- Ability to specify simultaneous tool axis with vertical,
lead/lean and others
- Additional level of tool axis control includes tilt axis for
gouge avoidance, which permits deeper cuts with shorter tools
- 5-axis hole feature recognition identifies holes at any index
angle
- 5-axis machine support in Xbuild
