AFRM
Powerful Automatic Feature Recognition & Machining
Automatic Feature Recognition & Machining
SolidCAM AFRM sets the new standards for automating CAM Programming.
Pocket Recognition
SolidCAM automatically recognizes all 2D pockets. Instead of machining each individual pocket in a separate operation, all pockets, no matter whether they are open, closed, blind or through pockets, are being identified with their corresponding depth and Z-level and machined in one operation. Full fixture protection in pocket, pocket recognition and 2D drilling allows you to machine your parts while protecting your fixtures.
- All strategies and options of the standard pocket operation are available, combined with variable upper levels and depths recognized from the model faces. User controls the choice of the Tool, Technology and Cutting Strategy.
- Automatic recognition and machining of fillets on the pocket floor
- Automatic rest material recognition on each pocket
- The perfect tool for multi pocketed parts
Chamfering and Deburring
Advanced Drill Recognition
SolidCAM automatically identifies all drills on the solid model and generates the necessary CNC operations.
- To select the drills to be machined, powerful filter tools such as diameter, Z-level or drill depth are available.
- Spot drills can be generated on all drill positions, where the depth relates to the diameter of the drill tool being used.
SolidCAM Hole Wizard
SolidCAM’s Hole Wizard, with Drag & Drop Machine Processes optimizes the task of programming multiple operation for complex holes.
- All holes in the CAD feature, including subordinate patterns are recognized.
- All Geometry and Dimensional parameters of the CAD Feature are available for use in the machining process.
- Complex logic including conditional equations provides greater flexibility.
- Simple, Counter Sunk, Counter Bored & Tapped hole sets are programmed with a single mouse click.
Drag & Drop Operations
Complete machining process, selected from of a standard library or user-defined, can be simply dragged on a single feature or on the complete part. SolidCAM then automatically generates all necessary operations.
