FeatureTURN/MILL
FeatureTURN/MILL is an extension of FeatureTURN and
incorporates both FeatureTURN and FeatureMILL2.5D With
FeatureTURN/MILL, turning features and milling features can be
conveniently ordered together in a single setup.
FeatureTURN/MILL provides several capabilities,
including:
- Support for lathes with C and Y axis milling capabilities and
sub-spindles.
- Drilling or milling features can be positioned on the face or
on the OD of the part, and are easily programmed with the
FeatureTURN/MILL feature wizard.
- FeatureTURN/MILL contains all the milling features of
FeatureMILL2.5D, including holes, slots, pockets, grooves, sides
and patterns.
- Milling features can be created on the OD and then wrapped
around the lathe's Z-axis. This process takes the Y moves of a
milling feature and translates them into C-axis rotations.
- Simulations accurately reflect the rotation of the part during
machining so that you can verify precise toolpaths on your
computer.
- Polar interpolation can be performed by FeatureTURN/MILL or by
the control.
- FeatureTURN/MILL includes the same post processing capabilities
as FeatureMILL2.5D and FeatureTURN. You simply create your features
and let FeatureTURN/MILL take care of the NC code details.
