What's New?

New Functionalities

Intermediate Stock Management
It is now possible to compute and visualize the input/output intermediate stock for milling and turning operations.
The computed stock is taken into account to optimize and secure the tool path.

Enhanced Functionalities

Helical Interpolation Output for Machining Operations
A helical interpolation instruction can now be generated in the output file (APT source and Clfile) for machining operations which support helical tool motion. These operations are Thread Milling, Circular Milling in Helical mode, Sequential Groove with Helical motions, and Profile Contouring defined with a Helix tool path style.
Multiple Radial Passes for Thread and Circular Milling Operations
This enhancement allows the user to create multiple passes (rough and finish) for Thread Milling and Circular Milling in Helical mode, and provides capability to create a spring pass. The user no longer needs to create separate operations for rough, finish and spring passes.
Support Multiple Tool Axis in Point to Point Operation
This enhancement enables the user to select different tool axes for multiple points in a single operation, and simplifies the selection procedure.
Extended Tool Type Support for Machining Operations
This enhancement gives user a wider selection of cutting tools on the following machining operations: Circular Milling, Countersinking, Counter Boring, Sequential Axial, Sequential Groove, and Pocketing.
