SURFCAM FREE Student Edition description
|
Modeling and NC programming software
SURFCAM FREE Student Edition provides users with solutions for surface modeling and processing of their CNC machines (MUCN), with the possibility to generate trajectories for machine tools and their postprocessing from lathes, wire cutting machines (EDM) Laser or water jet, milling machines up to 5 axes.
SURFCAM FREE Student Edition is a product with several levels of functionality. So you start with a SURFCAM 2-Axis and then add new capabilities to four or five axes, as needs require. SURFCAM offers 2D and 3D CAD capabilities and differentiates between them by the processing capabilities on NC machines.
SURFCAM is intended for:
Students that would like to learn NC programming at home
SURFCAM users that want to continue developing SURFCAM skills, but do not have enough time to do so in their work setting
NC operators that want to understand and learn SURFCAM on their own time
NOTE: SURFCAM FREE Student Edition is free for non-commercial use only. Here are some key features of "SURFCAM FREE Student Edition":
· No SIM or security code required
· All of the SURFCAM options and modules are supported with the exceptions of TRUEMill and native translators
· The ability to open and work with native SolidWorks files (SLDPRT and SLDASM)
· The ability to open and work with native Mastercam files (MC)
· Reading of ACIS, DWG, DXF, IGES, SAT, X_T, X_B, PAR, VDA, CDL, NCC, CM, GR, INV, SCCLT, ASC, MC, SCPRT and SCEDU files
Requirements:
· Processor: Duo Core II or higher
· Memory: 2 GB RAM
· Hard Disk Space: 1 GB Free
· Video: 512 MB Windows XP DirectX 11.0 or higher compatible display adapter capable of 1024x768 resolution in 32-bit color. Note: Integrated graphics cards can degrade performance.

Limitations:
· The ability to save only to SCEDU format
· No output or export capabilities
· No post processing or verification What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
TrueMill:
· The TrueMill slicer has been reworked to return a better quality toolpath along with faster toolpath calculation times.
· Pocket ordering is now more intelligent to reduce overall rapid moves.
· TrueMill 3D now is a single tool cutting strategy that functions in the same slicing manner as Z-Rough.
· The ability to turn off the “open pocket” cutting for 3 axis. This forces TrueMill to only calculate and cut the internal pocket areas of a model.
· The ability has been added to turn on depth first cutting. This forces TrueMill to cut each region to the full depth before moving onto the next area. This reduces cycle times.
· The ability to enter a separate spindle speed to control the spindle speed for the helical plunge versus the actual TrueMill path.
· Pilot hole has been enabled for TrueMill paths.
TrueMill Calculator:
· Recommended parameters for a variety of materials
· Save off parameter settings for reuse
· Metric or Inch compatibility
· Easy to use
· Standalone application
· R...
