Code Expert Mastercam X7 also includes Mastercam Mill-Turn, designed to simplify programming for complex Mill-Turn machines. IMPORTANT If you are interested in purchasing this product, please contact your local Mastercam reseller. The centerpiece of Mill-Turn is the Code Expert application. Like the new Tool Manager, the Code Expert runs in the new Extensions window. Code Expert incorporates an entire suite of tools for managing multitasking applications. Multi-threading Support for 2D HST Toolpaths The same multi-threading support that has been available for 3D HST and Multiaxis toolpaths is now extended to the 2D HST toolpaths, except for Blend. This processing mode allows Mastercam to split the program regeneration into smaller, separate program threads that process simultaneously. The result is faster toolpath processing that takes full advantage of today's multi-core processors. Containment Boundary Improvements When selecting chains for Area Clearance, OptiArea, Rest, and OptiRest toolpaths, you can now specify chains to restrict tool motion. The two images below show X6 versus X7 results.
