Description

ONGAA CAM was designed specifically for WOOD CNC machining by HOMAG BIESSE HOLZHER. It allows you to create programs directly from SOLIDWORKS. You can design and apply toolpaths in SOLIDWORKS without converting or using DXF files. The files created by ONGAA CAM comply with all MPR, BPP, CIX, NCHOPS and TPACAD standards. They do not require any manual editing. There are no additional software costs. Open Solidworks and a component to use ONGAA CAM. Next, start programming or let the wizard program for you. Click generate program, then copy the program to your CNC. Run the part program.
