5 Essential CAM Software Functions to Successfully Program Advanced Mill-turn and Swiss Machines

Modern multitasking machines like mill-turn and Swiss are designed to manufacture workpieces at maximum productivity. Learn what CAM capabilities are crucial to get the most from these machines.

Of all the types of machine tools on the market, multitasking machines like Swiss and mill-turn are at the top when it comes to complexity. This white paper discusses the most critical features needed in a CAM software to effectively program this equipment.

Having a CAM system that can quickly and accurately program these machines is of utmost importance to ensure that their vast capabilities are not wasted. While most CAM systems can easily program for milling or turning, this becomes much more of a challenge or impossibility when operating with multiple spindles or turrets, machining pieces simultaneously, performing milling and turning, or needing synchronized operation.

Topics covered include:

  • Integrated milling and turning
  • Synchronization and optimization
  • Digital twin simulation
  • Factory-certified post processors
  • Responsive support and educational resources
