Edgecam 2009 R1 computer aided manufacturing (CAM) software extends its already extensive Support for popular five-axis machines, with the introduction of the nutated head/rotary table configuration.
Historically, the programming of five-axis components has been among the most difficult tasks in CAM programming. In the five-axis environment, Edgecam 2009 R1 is claimed to be easy to use and, by default, creates a safe toolpath that will produce a finished part.
Thee flexible nature of five-axis machining means there is always a number of different ways the machine tool can move to produce the same cut. Confidence in the toolpath is paramount in five-axis, and in Edgecam this is achieved through reliable creation and visualisation. Enhanced capabilities within Planit's Edgecam 2009 R1 enable a full five-axis machine model to be visualised, along with component geometry and toolpath.
