Description

Inventor® CAM software streamlines the machining process by integrating CAD capabilities for 2.5-axis to 5-axis milling, turning, and mill-turn operations. The Product Design & Manufacturing Collection equips users with essential tools for both product design and manufacturing. With advanced technology, you can generate toolpaths that incorporate 3D adaptive clearing and a comprehensive array of finishing toolpaths. The ability to perform simultaneous 4- and 5-axis machining on intricate models is enhanced by features like tilt, multi-axis contouring, and swarf operations. Traditional operations such as turning, facing, grooving, and boring are also supported to boost productivity. The software facilitates live tooling mill-turning and allows for rapid generation of 2D profile cutting paths, with options to add all contours in a single plane, incorporate tabs, and define quality parameters. Additionally, it ensures the safe operation of CNC machines by automatically detecting and preventing collisions between your part and tool holders during the machining process. This combination of features makes Inventor® CAM an invaluable asset for manufacturers looking to optimize their workflows.

Description

NREC’s MAX-PAC™ suite of CAM software delivers superior cutter-path solutions tailored for turbomachinery parts, providing users with various cutting strategies that can effectively lower both engineering and production expenses. This software is customizable with different modules to fit specific part geometries, accommodating operations like flank milling of ruled-surface blades, point milling for arbitrary-surface blades, integrally shrouded impellers, and individual blades. Recognized for its excellence, MAX-PAC is touted as the premier CAM software for 5-axis milling of turbomachinery components, including impellers, blisks, and rotors, and boasts a solid reputation among manufacturers, job shops, and 5-axis machine-tool providers globally. The expertise embedded in these advanced tools stems from methodologies secured by three distinct patents. Unlike other CAM software, MAX-PAC exclusively focuses on turbomachinery, which results in a quicker learning curve, enhanced usability, and reduced programming and machining times, making it an invaluable resource for industry professionals. Its specialized capabilities not only streamline the machining process but also ensure precision and efficiency for complex turbomachinery designs.
