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 Machining5axis_mail3

  • 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
