Customer error reporting (CER) fixes
- A problem has been fixed that could cause PowerMill to close unexpectedly when calculating a toolpath using Tool Axis Smoothing. This issue was identified by CER. PMILL-20947
PowerMillis a stand-alone CAM system that quickly produces additive toolpaths, inspection probe paths, and gouge-free NC toolpaths from CAD models using 2.5D machining, 3-axis machining, or multi-axis simultaneous machining. These toolpaths can then be checked for collisions against other models (for example, clamps) and the tool holder before being output to cutter location and tape files. PowerMill has a wide variety of direct interfaces. It supports IGES, VDA, and STL data formats, which enables you to import data from any CAD system that supports these neutral formats.
PowerMill 2024offers a new Flowline strategy plus additional improvements to Area Clearance, Flat Machining, Drilling, Rest Finishing, and more.
