A redesigned, highly intuitive on-screen gnomon allows users to switch between coordinate systems and views instantly, cutting down on navigating through traditional menu trees. Machine Simulation and Verification
New settings allow for smoother finishes on steep walls using fewer steps. Advanced Turning Features
Better 3D simulation catches crashes before they happen on the real machine. Industry Uses mastercam 2023
This allows for continuous rotation of the B-axis while the cutting tool is engaged, improving tool life and surface finish, particularly on complex geometries.
While the B-Axis toolpath is the star of the show for turn-mill users, everyone benefits from the . A redesigned, highly intuitive on-screen gnomon allows users
| Operation | Toolpath | Typical Use | |-----------|----------|--------------| | Roughing | | High-speed trochoidal milling | | Finishing | Contour (2D) or Scallop (3D) | Clean walls/floors | | Hole making | Drill | Spot, drill, tap, ream | | Finishing | Pencil (3D) | Clean fillets/corners |
: A redesigned interface for defining stock, fixtures, and machine tools in one centralized location. Industry Uses This allows for continuous rotation of
: For milling operations, the "Detect Stock" functionality has been improved to better identify remaining material from previous operations. This ensures that toolpaths are only generated where material actually exists, drastically reducing "air cutting" and saving time on the machine.
: Use the new interface to define stock dimensions, orientation, and material.
Enhanced, consistent toolpaths result in better surface finishes and accuracy.
helps manage complex assemblies by categorizing views with colors and folders, reducing on-screen clutter during the design process. ⚙️ Advanced Toolpath Innovations
