WOODWEB is a professional industrial woodworking site.If these things are possible and I'm just not seeing it I'd gladly pay for your time and assistanceįORUM GUIDELINES: Please review the guidelines below before posting at WOODWEB's Interactive Message Boards ( return to top) Im wondering if anyone has any experience with Camworks and a 5 or even a 3/4 axis Homag and any advice.

This is not a suitable way - The pucker factor is HUGE! (Though I haven't spent a ton of time with tech support which is what I'll be doing this week)įurthermore I have yet to find a proper way to add clamps or pods to the code to be fed into woodwop. Uniquely shaped parts are of concern to me.Īdditionally this is a 5 axis machine, I haven't been able to figure a safe way to define our saw other than as a 175mm radius router bit with a 3mm width of cut and approaching from the side and using great care with leadin leadout. Example, not being able to see a perimeter cut - so an ellipse would require me to guess where a safe area to setup pods or clamps. But I'm having trouble getting it to function to the level I'm used to with Alphacam. Camworks on the whole seems like a pretty powerful program, with lots of great features. The only thing I'm seeing is the stock material. So nothing, not even a perimeter cut is visible inside of woodwop. I Recently made a job switch to a company that has purchased Camworks.Ĭamworks have provided a post which as I've seen only puts out a Frier NC macro.

I've been using Alphacam for the past 4 years running SCM and Homag machines.
