Core Foundation
All ALPHACAM modules are built using one core foundation which includes geometry creation commands such as line, arc, circle, rectangle, polygon, ellipse, spline, and polyline together with surface creation options. Other features include intelligent snapping functions such as end, mid, centre, intersect, tangent, quadrant, and auto.
Import options for DXF, DWG, IGES, and a variety of solid model formats ensure compatibility with other CAD systems. There are also various geometry editing functions including undo, redo, move, copy, rotate, mirror, scale, break, trim, explode, join, extend, fillet, chamfer, and offset.
All modules have user-defined tool and material libraries controlling many of the important machining parameters such as tool direction, automatic lead in and lead out, corner cut options (straight, roll round, or loop), G41/42 tool compensation, and automatic calculation of speeds and feeds.
Post Processors
With manufacturers facing ever-increasing global competition, it is essential to maintain maximum machinery efficiency to ensure optimal production throughput. Having an optimised link between ALPHACAM and your CNC machines, through the use of post processors, is a key component in attaining this efficiency.
Having developed post processors for virtually every machine control in use today, ALPHACAM has the knowledge and experience to fine-tune your CNC output ensuring maximum yield and quality in the shortest possible time.
Impementing ALPHACAM alongside our CNC has meant we have taken massive strides forward in the production of intricate detail and our reduced lead times.
