Toolroom or slant-bed lathes with X and Z control are compatible.

Standard 2-axis lathes can be programmed in CAM Professional. Tool life goes up, cycle time goes down, and you’re more competitive than ever with VoluMill. A dedicated Feeds & Speeds wizard will help you create toolpaths that are not only faster but safer and less harsh on your machine tool. VoluMill leads the industry in high-speed machining (HSM) toolpath technology, and it is built right into SOLIDWORKS CAM Professional. Programming for indexers and trunnions is simple and straightforward with SOLIDWORKS CAM Professional. Assemble your setup virtually using the native SOLIDWORKS CAD mating tools and simply assign parts as Fixtures to force toolpaths to avoid them.Īutomatically generate rotational A/B/C codes to swiftly move between setups. Programming within a SOLIDWORKS assembly is the best way to ensure your toolpaths do not come into contact with anything but the stock material. There is no way to avoid the need for workholding – parts must be held down – but we can avoid costly collisions between tools and fixtures by planning ahead.
