CAM Part in CAD6 Industry

The CAM part supports the following machining procedures: milling, turning, water jet cutting, laser cutting, cutting, plotting, and positioning. It offers a variety of functions to create drawings which are to be exported to a CNC machine.

Commands like milling cutter compensation, insert rib, milling order control, milling time calculation and a graphical 3D preview let you create drawings that are directly milled later. Extensive tool and machine settings, plus output of custom commands using symbols, give you the complete control over what the post-processors finally output to the machine.

The universal post-processor creates the actual milling data by using the geometric data and the associated machine information of the drawing. This data is transferred directly to the control program of a machine. Due to the fact that there are machine specific differences when interpreting the milling data, the post-processor is equipped with adjustable options and configurable by scripts for individual use.

The following predefined post-processors are currently available:
Universal DIN-ISO
Siemens DIN-ISO (Milling) and (Turning) with the SINUMERIK 8XX controller
Heidenhain DIN-ISO (Milling) and (Turning) with the TNC 4XX controller
Heidenhain Klartext (Milling) with the TNC 4XX controller
DATRON milling machine CAT3D
isel NCP
Zünd cutter (with material feed)
HP-GL
Minimal HP-GL (using PU and PD only)
and others.
