Features of BobCAD-CAM for CNC Lathe
Canned Cycles
The software supports the use of canned cycles, which are used to reduce the size of your NC programs. You’re given the option of posting each feature as separate moves or as canned cycles.
Custom Tool Holder & Inserts
Easily define tool profiles with standard tool shape options or draw your custom tool profile to match your exact tool. Toolpath calculations take into consideration custom defined tool holder and insert geometry to avoid costly gouging and eliminate potential air cutting.
Facing, Threading, & Grooving Cycles
Facing, threading, and grooving cycles are supported on the OD and ID and can be posted as separate moves or as canned cycles.
Collision Detection
The software takes into account tool holder and insert geometry when analyzing programming for collisions to ensure you’re creating error free programming.
