ContourCAM,
DesignCAD için CAM çözümü
ContourCAM is a powerful CAM system built for DesignCAD
ContourCAM completely integrates with DesignCAD’s menus and allows you
to create parts for milling, drilling, and turning in 2D and 3D.
Machining Operation
Contouring
The contouring process is used to mill one side of a contour. You can do
contouring on either open or closed geometries. For open geometries, you
must specify which side to mill. For closed geometries, ContourCAM
determines which is the internal and which is the external side.
Pocketing
Pocket milling is used to remove material in an enclosed area. You can
specify any number of borders or islands; the only restriction is that
the borders and islands must be closed and each island must be
completely contained by the border. ContourCAM will generate toolpaths
with minimum rapid traverse.
Boring
The boring process enables you to call canned machine cycles for boring,
drilling, tapping, etc. on the circles in the drawing.
Engraving
With the engraving process, you can generate NC code for any drawing on
a flat surface.
Cutting
The cutting paths process is used to directly convert the lines and arcs
of a drawing to movements in the NC program. The contouring process is
used to cyt one side of a contour with compensation for torch diameter.
ContourCAM automatically generates lead ins and lead outs.
Tool Libraries
ContourCAM has 3 tool libraries, one for milling, one for turning, and
one for cutting. Activate the tool library for milling and you can
create a profile for each tool, i.e. diameter, rounding, length
compensation, height of cutter, spindle speed, and feedrate.
Toolpaths and Simulator Easily create toolpaths from a DesignCAD drawing which will generate the NC-code for use in the NC editor. ContourCAM’s simulator will display whatever toolpaths you have generated by actually reading the NC code in the ContourCAM editor.
Zoom
in and out to turn your object to ensure it comes out the way you want.
You can even step through each toolpath to confirm the movements of your
CNC machinery. |
Postprocessors
ContourCAM contains standard postprocessors for the most well known CNC
machinery, but you can even create your own post processors, if the ones
provided do not exactly meet the requirements of your machinery.
Snake Programming System
Many CAD/CAM systems base their 3D function on the user having to draw
the object in 3D, but since this often requires a lot more skill from
the user, we have chosen a different strategy with ContourCAM. With
ContourCAM, you can create almost any 3D object by only working in 2D.
We call it Snake programming.
ContourCAM’s Snake programming offers the following:
Generation of finishing programs for 3D surfaces
Engraving of 3D surfaces
Generation of DesignCAD 3D MAX drawings showing the surface
Serial Communication
Easily send your NC program directly to your CNC unit with one click. If
you send to File in the Communication menu, the information will be
saved to a file and with comments removed and line numbers will be added
automatically.
