SprutCAM for PCNC Features include:
Advanced Toolpath Design
Machining operations are organized in a hierarchical structure that contains a “tree” type list of operations. The machining process can include an unlimited number of operations, and operations can be easily added, subtracted, or rearranged because of SprutCAM7 Pro’s highly adaptable parametric process definitions.
SprutCAM employs a powerful 3D feature recognition that can find prominent geometries in imported CAD solid models such as holes, pockets, and perimeter and graphically driven tool path generation interface.
Indexing and Continuous 4th-Axis Programming
SprutCAM can generate tool paths for both indexing and continuous 4th-axis motion, allowing for complex operations such as engraving around a bar or 360 degrees part machining without the need to flip parts and re-fixture.
Lathe Module
Included with SprutCAM is a powerful lathe module for programming roughing, finishing, parting, facing, grooving, threading, and drilling operations.
Parameterized Cutting Tools
SprutCAM supports 15 different cutting tool geometries, each fully customizable with its own list of parameters. Once a tool is parametrically defined (# of flutes, diameter, tip shape, etc.) it can be saved in a library for future use in other projects.
Simulation
SprutCAM performs a 3D interactive simulation of the tool path that allows you to rotate and observe from multiple viewpoints. Additionally, SprutCAM can identify potential problems with tool paths by comparing simulation results with a CAD model of the actual part or detecting overlap with the toolpath and workholding fixtures.
Customized Design Options
SprutCAM incorporates a number of advanced programming strategies. These include parameterized lead in/ lead out for tool entry and exit, multiple tool plunging options, helical machining, ramping, definition of rapid planes and multiple retract levels, inside and outside corner smoothing, and many others.
Compatible with your CAD
SprutCAM can import a many of the most commonly encountered 3D CAD formats, including IGES, Parasolid, Rhino, and Postscript. It can also import 2D CAD drawings in DXF and includes a 2D CAD utility for drawing and editing. SprutCAM7 Pro also has addins for direct export from Solidworks.
