4 Mastercam is continuing our tradition of developing new Dynamic Motion toolpaths. Dynamic Motion is an exciting new approach to creating toolpaths. It forms the core of many of Mastercam s most popular toolpaths from milling to turning, and we re constantly expanding it across our products. Dynamic Motion is always included and never sold as an extra add-on. And you don t need a new machine to take advantage of Dynamic Motion technology. virtually any machine can experience these Dynamic improvements in speed and efficiency. 2

This same Dynamic Motion also produces a consistent chip load, reducing vibration and pulling heat away from the part and tool through the chips themselves. That s better for your tools, your machines, and your finished parts. And the smooth motion eliminates abrupt directional changes, keeping your machines more accurate with less maintenance. dynamic Motion makes easy work of cutting hard materials.

9 MuLTIAXIS MACHININg Complexity simplified. Multiaxis machining can dramatically increase a shop s competitiveness. Mastercam s multiaxis interface is surprisingly simple and intuitive to use, ensuring any shop can make the move when the time is right. And with Mastercam, you have complete control over the three crucial elements of multiaxis machining: cut pattern, tool axis control, and collision avoidance. From 4-axis rotary and roll die cutting to multiblade impellers with tight internal cuts, Mastercam helps simplify even the most complex jobs. Other highlights include: Multisurface 5-axis roughing and finishing (including depth cuts), plunge roughing, flowline machining. Swarf fanning and swarf machining over multisurface floors. Advanced gouge checking and a 5-axis safe zone around the work piece. Fast, simple 5-axis trimming and drilling. Create full 5-axis motion from a 3-axis toolpath. From basic 5-axis contours to dynamic roughing and complex finishing, Mastercam is built to streamline multiaxis programming. For specialty machining, ask about these available add-ons: Mastercam Blade Expert delivers specialized tools for efficiently cutting multi-bladed parts and hubs. Mastercam Port Expert offers dramatically faster head port programming and smoother toolpath motion. For more information, visit the accuracy of our medical parts is crucial.
