NCG CAM

NCG CAM

NCG CAM is a stand-alone HSM CAM system that integrates with existing CAD and CAM systems including Pro/ENGINEER, Creo, IRONCAD and SOLIDWORKS.

NCG CAM boasts many innovative features including automatic 3D roughing. This is suitable for all types of forms, creating an optimised and smooth cutter motion for HSM machining, while helping to extend tool life, minimising wear on the machine tool and producing parts with excellent surface finish.

NCG CAM has a very user-friendly interface, with a typical learning curve of just 1 day required to machine a live job.

NCG CAM offers many advanced 3D machining routines, rest roughing & 3 + 2 capabilities for all toolpaths, a simultaneous 5-axis add-on module is available.

3+2 milling   5 axis milling

Fast and efficient roughing strategies, including core roughing.
Advanced drilling routines – includes automatic hole detection and / or user defined holes.
All machining routines are fully gouge protected for both the cutter and the tool holder.

Benefits

  • Easy to learn and use – learning curve of just 1 day to start cutting.
  • Toolpaths are optimised for HSM machining, to extend tool life and reduce wear on the machine.
  • 3D stock models can be created to clarify material moved.
  • All post-processors are written in-house, giving complete in-house support.
