CAMWorks VoluMill is an optional and newly introduced milling toolpath engine within CAMWorks 2011 for 2.5 axis and 3 axis roughing operations. It is ideal for prismatic parts and complex 3-D shapes as its algorithms result in more intelligent toolpaths to machine pockets, slots, and arbitrary shapes. Volumill is well suited for machining soft as well as hard materials that are hard to chip, such as titanium, nickel-based alloys or stainless steel. The result is increased efficiency and utilization of machines, tools, labor and materials.
Program Smarter! Machine Faster! Improve Tool Life
The high-performance roughing module, which is fully integrated in CAMWorks 2011, combines optimal milling paths and maximum material removal with minimized machining times. VoluMill's unique approach to high speed material removal allows the programmer to determine the optimum material removal rate for any com-bination of part geometry, material, machine, and cutting tool. Material is removed in the most effective way possible. Consequently, machines run smoothly and tools run cooler.
- Reduce your Cycle Times up to 80%
- Reduce your programming times up to 50%
- Increase your Cutting Tool Life up to 500%
