The Fastest and Most Accurate CAM Software on the Market
CAM-TOOL is a five-axis-control-machining-center compatible, high-end CAD/CAM system with a hybrid CAM engine (Polygon and Surface Calculation). This Hybrid capability enables direct machining to be applied to materials with a high degree of hardness. In addition, CAM TOOL provides a superior surface finish, longer tool life, reduced machining time and finishing time.
Increased Tool Life
Increase tool life by 10-20%Increased Tool Life
More accurate NC code eliminates tool overloading which increases tool life.
Better Surface Finish
Produce mirror finishes from the CNC machineBetter Surface Finish
Eliminating deviations in the NC code creates surface finishes that only polishing was able to previously produce.
Reduce EDM Time
Machine more small details to reduce EDMReduce EDM Time
More accurate NC code allows you to use longer length to diameter ratios making small areas machinable.
Reduced Spotting Time
Reduce spotting time by 25%Reduced Spotting Time
More accurately machined parts take less time to spot together.
Cut Hard Steel with Ease
Use materials you didn’t think were possibleCut Hard Steel with Ease
Increased tool path accuracy has allowed our customers to machine exotic materials above 60rc and carbide.
Micro Machining
Use the smallest tooling imaginableMicro Machining
Higher accuracy tool paths allow the use of .1mm tools without the worry of breaking them.
“The high accuracy toolpath allows us to cut shutoff surfaces with no further handwork”,
“5th axis machine simulator helps us to detect interference or collisions before sending the program to the machine for worry free machining”
The Difference is in the Tool Path Calculation
Most CAM systems calculate their tool paths using what is referred to as a triangulation mesh. This means putting a virtual net over the model and using the intersecting points to calculate their tool paths. This mesh creates inaccuracies in the NC code, and in turn, your part. With CAM-TOOL’s surface calculation, your NC code is directly offset from the surfaces to ensure smooth, accurate tool paths that are true to the model. This higher accuracy NC code increases tool life, surface finish and produces more accurate parts.
Reduce your operating costs
Competing CAM software that utilizes Triangular Mesh Calculation results in breakage of the spindle and tools, over-cutting, shorter tool life, substantial polishing, cutter marks on the machined surface and molds that do not fit within the tolerance level.
CAM TOOL’s unique Surface Based Calculation for tool paths results in a superior surface finish, longer tool life, reduced machining time, prevention of machining accidents, and reduced finishing time.
True Surface Offset NC Data allows machining to the tightest tolerances in the industry!
Reduce your lead times
The time required to machine a typical mold component has been dramatically reduced since we added CAM TOOL as our default CAM software system. The surface finishes that CAM TOOL can produce are second to none and the machining accuracy is unparalleled to any other CAM software we’ve tested.
