new features have been added to Multiaxis Drill, such as using a line length for the drill depth and recognition of the stock model for depth and top of stock purposes and.Tool Setup Manager in the Mill-Turn package has been redesigned to improve workflow and ease of use.They have also been redesigned for more intuitive controls and easier workflow placement of the Level and Plane Managers in a dockable, floatable function panel.preview select 2D high-speed toolpaths in the graphics window before closing and generating or regenerating the toolpath.Improvements to tool and job set-up, says CNC Software, improve overall workflow.Īccording to the company, Mastercam 2017’s other toolpath enhancements are: The Mastercam Mill-Turn package now supports multi-station tool locators for turrets as well as half index positions. Optimized Raster Motion improves toolpath efficiency by filling in steeper geometry with perpendicular raster motion to create a cleaner result. This functionality allows users to limit how deeply the cutter engages uncut material as well as protects smaller tools from taking too heavy of a cut. Mastercam 2017 introduces Maximum Stock Engagement for select 3D high-speed finishing toolpaths. This results in re-position moves that are more efficient, less complex and travel a shorter distance, which results in shorter cycle times, according to the company. Enhanced in version 2017, micro lifts-retracts that avoid excess heat buildup-now use a line-of-sight approach to move the tool where it needs to go through unobstructed areas. In Mastercam 2017, CNC Software reports that it has improved its Dynamic Motion technology for maximizing material removal rates, extending tool life and reducing cycle time. This screen shot shows that, to edit the assembly, you simply select the assembly and then either enter a value or use the ruler to drag it up or down to a specified length. Mastercam 2017 sees a new Tool Projection functionality that allows you to see what the tool assembly will look like against the part you are machining.
