CAM software for CNC lathes PartMaker
PartMaker Turn

PartMaker CAM Software for CNC Lathes uses visual representation of turning operations and cutting tool parameters to assure quicker learning. The task of lathe programming is made so simple that even novices can produce good programs in a matter of minutes. Once the desired operation is selected, a graphical representation of the tool motion and material removal is shown.

With every new selection, the picture changes to show exactly how the operation will be performed. The parameters of each operation, such as finish allowances, depth of cut and clearances, are clearly displayed on the picture making entry of these parameters very easy
