CAD / CAM software for lathe and mill-turn machining DELCAM
FeatureTURN
FeatureTURN
FeatureTURN includes the following features for part creation.
- Holes - You can create a variety of hole types aligned with the part's Z-axis. Simply enter hole dimensions to create any common hole type including counter-sink, counter-bore, reamed or tapped.
- Facing Feature - To face off the part, you simply enter the cut thickness and two diameter values.
- OD Turning Feature - You can create outer turning features from any two-dimensional geometry or curves. Round tool roughing is supported and you have precise control of entry and exit.
- ID Boring Feature - Bores are created from simple two-dimensional geometry or curves.
- Groove Feature - OD, ID and face grooves are created from curves or by entering dimensions that describe the groove's shape.
- Thread Feature - Both OD and ID threading features can easily be created from dimensional data. Tapered threads are supported and relief grooves can be conveniently generated within the thread feature. 2006 You can also thread along a form shape.
- Cutoff Feature - Cutoff feature includes optional chamfer and part catcher control.
- Bar feed feature - FeatureTURN provides support for both bar feeders and bar pullers..
- Sub-spindle Feature - FeatureTURN supports machines with sub-spindles.
FeatureTURN/MILL
FeatureTURN/MILL is an extension of FeatureTURN and incorporates both FeatureTURN and FeatureMILL2.5D With FeatureTURN/MILL, turning features and milling features can be conveniently ordered together in a single setup.
FeatureTURN/MILL provides several capabilities, including:
- Support for lathes with C and Y axis milling capabilities and sub-spindles.
- Drilling or milling features can be positioned on the face or on the OD of the part, and are easily programmed with the FeatureTURN/MILL feature wizard.
- FeatureTURN/MILL contains all the milling features of FeatureMILL2.5D, including holes, slots, pockets, grooves, sides and patterns.
- Milling features can be created on the OD and then wrapped around the lathe's Z-axis. This process takes the Y moves of a milling feature and translates them into C-axis rotations.
- Simulations accurately reflect the rotation of the part during machining so that you can verify precise toolpaths on your computer.
- Polar interpolation can be performed by FeatureTURN/MILL or by the control.
- FeatureTURN/MILL includes the same post processing capabilities as FeatureMILL2.5D and FeatureTURN. You simply create your features and let FeatureTURN/MILL take care of the NC code details.
