Software training,tutorials,download,torrent; Montreal, Canada) released CAM-POST V18, the latest version of its graphical NC postprocessing software solution, an interactive development and deployment software product that supports most CAD / CAM systems, CNC controllers, and machine tools.
Version 18 delivers technological improvements based on the evolution of the NC manufacturing industry and the market intelligence gathered upon solving current manufacturing issues faced by leading aerospace and automotive companies.
CAM-POST V18 provides the environment for a tightly integrated postprocessing and machine simulation solution allowing users to create and automatically test NC programs against collisions and other programming errors within a single user-friendly graphical interface.
Building on its advanced features such as path planning and rotary axes pre-positioning / winding, developed to enhance the machining process while avoiding dwell marks, over-traveling and rotary repositioning, CAM-POST V18 offers an array of new features to its end-users including rotary head support for 5-axis Mill / Turn machines; new polar interpolation (TRANSMIT, G12.1…) and emulation support for Mill / Turn and Mill machines; rotary axis singular-positioning optimization to avoid linear axis over-traveling conditions; and automatic switching between Cartesian (xyz) and Polar (zxc) to avoid linear axis over-traveling.
ICAM’s complete NC manufacturing product line including CAM-POST V18 is now available for 64-bit processors and supports Windows Vista. The ICAM database supports extended postprocessor names and unlimited revisions.
