Features
 |  |  | ||
Accelerated Finishing™Take advantage of innovative profile tools and processes aimed at greater efficiency and higher machining productivity. | Dynamic Motion™Extend tool life with proprietary toolpath strategies that maximize material removal rate and reduce cycle times. | Certified Gold ProductOnly available to software companies, Certified Gold Product status provides a fully integrated, “single window.” |
CompatibilitySOLIDWORKS users can access the Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS environment using Mastercam Mill, Mastercam Lathe, and Mastercam Router. Contact your local Reseller for additional options.
| Advanced ToolpathsReduce costs and cut programming time with advanced toolpaths like Deburr and Equal Scallop
| Machine SimulationDetect collisions between your stock, tool, and machine components before sending code to your machine tool. Machine Simulation is a safe way to prove out 3-axis, 4-axis, or 5-axis Mill (or Router) toolpaths to make clean, efficient, and accurate programs.
| SOLIDWORKS Design TablesYou can program an entire family of parts by simply programming the first configuration—Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS will propagate the toolpaths into the various other versions within the family of parts. |
