Mastercam Review

Mastercam is a 3D computer-aided design (CAD) platform developed to help companies create and design manufacturing equipment using various built-in tools, including 2D programming, multi-axis machining, wireframe modeling, and more. Managers can analyze and modify UV directions in surface models and utilize the Advanced Drill toolpath for deep drilling processes.
Mastercam‘s Chamfer Drill toolpath drills holes in machinery after calculating depth based on the required width, allowing supervisors to select holes with specific diameters or sizes and process them in a single operation. CNC (computer numerically controlled) programmers can model, combine, and process CAD geometry using various modeling tools. The system also supports multiple file formats, such as JPG, TIFF, and more. Its simulation capabilities also enable the detection of collisions between machine components.

MASTERCAM – FEATURES

• Enhance machining performance and reduce overall production costs with powerful milling toolpaths such as Mastercam Deburr, Y/A/B-axis turning improvements, and more.
• Equip your workshop with the best possible foundations for fast and efficient milling. From generic methods like optimized pocketing to highly specialized toolpaths such as 5-axis turbine cutting, your parts are produced faster, with greater precision, quality, and repeatability.
• CAM programming software for lathes provides a set of tools to turn your parts exactly as needed. It offers easy roughing, grooving, threading, parting, boring, drilling, and finishing routines for increased productivity.
• Mill-turn programming simplifies multi-stream high-power work centers for enhanced performance and safety. These multitasking CNC machines reduce multiple setups, manual part handling, redundant fixturing, and downtime for better manufacturing productivity.
• No need for a separate software package for Swiss CNC machines, something both programmers and operators appreciate. Provide your workshop with the convenience and precision for gang-type machines and selected machines with gang turret and B-axis.
• Fast, easy, and productive Wire EDM CNC machine programming solution.
• Mastercam Learning Edition is a free downloadable CAD/CAM software for demonstration and educational purposes. It is a trial version of Mastercam that can be used for learning at home.
• Computer-aided design solution that simplifies the creation of even the most complex parts with a robust suite of CAD tools. Design is included in Mastercam’s CAM solution suite but is also available as a standalone product.
