Highlights include an upgrade to the multi-spindle lathe set-up that allows for clearer definition of main and sub-spindle components. This leads to a better understanding as to which machining features are active, and means multiple transfers can be made between spindles.
Also introduced is a port machining module for Edgecam's 5-axis cycle, which now offers both roughing and finishing strategies. The toolpath reaches the full area with a single path, providing two types of cut pattern.
Another highlight is an enhanced hole cycle that is said to deliver significant time savings. Where voids or intersecting holes are detected, the toolpath is adjusted automatically, increasing the feed rate while the tool is not cutting.
