Trochoidal moves speed up roughing cycles
Latest release software that uses new intelligent option that inserts trochoidal moves where required delivers a faster roughing cycle by minimising changes in the cutting direction.
Autodesk Inventor 8 software is an advanced mechanical design solution that successfully combines 2D capabilities with the power of 3D.
Because EdgeCAM Solid Machinist provides full toolpath to model associativity, Autodesk Inventor software parts are loaded without the need for data translation.
EdgeCAM uses Automatic Feature Recognition to interrogate the model to find machineable features.
In addition, the user is notified of any late design changes, resulting in faster design-to-manufacture time.
Says Steve Sivitter, CEO, Pathtrace "In order to receive certification from Autodesk, EdgeCAM must conform to very demanding standards.
We are pleased that yet again Pathtrace is at the forefront in CAD/CAM interoperability, further demonstrating our position as the standard in solids based machining." Pathtrace Engineering Systems is the developer of EdgeCAM, an extremely powerful but easy-to-use software solution devoted to automating the process of NC programming for metal cutting machine tools.
Offices are established in the UK, USA, China and Japan, complementing a worldwide network of resellers.
