Software With New Toolpaths

Mastercam X2 offers newly added tool paths that expand the range of toolpath style choices and provide unique capabilities to machine a variety of conditions that might be encountered in a daily job. High-speed and multi-axis tool paths are examples of the new advanced tool paths implemented. These tool paths use a "smart" interface that customizes itself to the selected machining strategy, making it easier for the user to tightly control the machining process, the company says.

The software also offers a file tracking function that helps manage files by identifying files that have changed, and a change recognition function that identifies specific changes in files.

Other features include automatic tool pathing, added selection tools, the Surface Extend function (extends both trimmed and untrimmed surface edges), trochoidal motion in high-speed tool paths, and more.
