Mastercam Offers Promotion For Limited Time
CNC Software, Inc., developer of Mastercam CAD/CAM systems, is beginning a sales promotion on two of their popular CAD/CAM products. From now until April 30, 2005, add a seat of Lathe or Wire to an existing seat of Mastercam for a reduced price. Offer is not available for a Network license, and is only available as an add-on to an existing or new Mastercam seat.
For shops that are tired of manually programming their Lathe or Wire, or looking for an economical way to add Lathe and Wire or both to their seats of Mastercam, this sales promotion is the solution. Get the benefits of complete associative toolpaths and the ability to use the same part file for all your parts.
Mastercam Lathe provides easy 2D and 3D geometry creation and programming. Mastercam Lathe allows you to program directly from a wireframe, surface model, or solid model. Many features build upon each other, resulting in another big step forward in turning efficiency. Examples include the ability to click and drag your start point to anywhere on a contour, and more flexible roughing overlap control. Tapered thread programming and relief groove creation for threading is included, and expanded stock definition helps ensure precise programming.
Mastercam Wire provides easy 2D and 3D geometry creation and programming with multiple ways to create entities. Fully associative geometry and wirepaths let you modify geometry or machining parameters and immediately get an accurate, updated wirepath. Other features include no core cutting, 4-axis synchronization with automatic skim and reverse cuts, 4-axis surface finish by chordal deviation, a sharp corner option that creates an outside loop to assure corners are not rounded off, quickly adding multiple tabs to any piece of geometry, and much more.
