FeatureCAM is a CAM system that incorporates the concept of features, which is prevalent in the world of CAD.
Unlike conventional CAM systems, FeatureCAM adopts a more efficient method for creating part programs. Instead of programming each roughing and finishing process individually, it simply creates parts using features. There is no need for operators to set machining instructions for each process as was done with previous CAM systems. By simply assigning features to the created or imported shapes, FeatureCAM automatically selects tools based on a database for all cutting processes, constructs cutting conditions automatically, and generates NC data. A major feature of FeatureCAM is its ease of use and memorability. By following the steps, users can create up to the final process. It displays surfaces, solids, processes, etc., in a tree structure for easy overview, and editing elements and processes is also straightforward.

basic information
A feature refers to the definition of shape characteristics. The FeatureCAM system includes machining processes commonly used in daily operations, such as "holes, pockets, bosses, grooves, chamfers, and counterbores." However, unlike features in CAD, the shapes include information about the machining paths from the material to the final shape. By simply inputting numerical values into the parameters, FeatureCAM generates NC data tailored to that shape. Therefore, even if an operator is unfamiliar with the setup for boss machining or pocket machining, they can still create NC data. The "intelligence" built into the system takes care of all the tedious tasks, making FeatureCAM a dream-like CAM solution. 【Modules】 FeatureCAM Standard: Supports 2D machining, single-surface 3D machining, lathes, and wire machining. FeatureCAM Premium: Supports 3D machining, 5-axis indexing machining, lathes with milling, scale settings, and machine simulation. FeatureCAM Ultimate: Supports simultaneous 5-axis, complex lathes, VERICUT interface, and Swiss-type lathes.
