What Does VX CAM Offer?
CAM
is integrated with VX
Modeling. All the functionality of Modeling is available when using the
CAM system and the look and feel is the same.
The
system is "object-oriented." The CAM Plan
Manager represents logical data groupings such as tools and machines.
Parametric
tool motion and dependency management allow CAM
plan strategies to adapt to changes in design or manufacturing specifications.
Tool paths
can be generated on combinations of wireframe, surface, and solid entities
created with
VX Modeling,
Drafting, or imported
from other CAD products using neutral formats such as IGES or other translators.
CAM
allows you to control and manage the manufacturing data required for NC
machine components and tooling. This includes operation specifications,
feeds and speeds, machine definitions, setups and tool paths.
CAM analyzes
geometry to create correct tool paths. It also provides the ability to
manage and standardize your manufacturing processes.
The
CAM forms allow you to enter, verify and search for CAM data. The CAM
Plan Manager is designed to graphically present information in clear,
logically organized groups. This allows you to streamline input, archive,
and reuse data. The intent is to allow you to create a reusable database
containing the manufacturing information appropriate for your site.
Full Undo and Redo operations are available on all manufacturing functions.
