Description
FreeMILL is a complimentary milling module that operates as part of our commercial CNC software, designed specifically for programming CNC mills and routers. This entirely free CAM software imposes no restrictions regarding time limits, the number of attempts, saving capabilities, or lines of code! Users can create toolpaths where the cutting tool moves along a series of parallel planes to shape their desired geometry. Additionally, it allows the generation of both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths, and provides full simulation capabilities for cutting and material processes. Outputting G-code for your selected CNC milling machine is also part of its features. MecSoft Corporation, founded in 1997, is a pioneering developer of both standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions catering to the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing sectors. Headquartered in Irvine, CA, MecSoft is committed to creating easy-to-use, robust, and cost-effective CAD/CAM software solutions that meet the diverse needs of our users. Their dedication to innovation ensures that customers receive top-notch support and continuously updated technology.
Description
MachiningCloud is a comprehensive cloud-based platform designed for CNC manufacturers, machinists, and manufacturing engineers, focusing on tooling data and pre-CAM planning. It offers a wide array of searchable cutting-tool information sourced directly from manufacturers, which includes 3D models, dimensions, detailed drawings, and relevant application data. Users have the ability to select tools, create and manage tool assemblies, assess feeds and speeds, plan machining operations, and organize their tool inventory along with crib records. Additionally, they can export tool or job information to various CAM systems, making the workflow more efficient. The platform also facilitates the generation of shop-floor documentation and enables users to prepare for tool purchases through authorized suppliers. With its web application, standardized tooling information is seamlessly integrated from product research and tool selection into CAM programming and production readiness. Furthermore, enterprise licensing provides API access to the catalog, allowing for data licensing that supports integrations with CAM, ERP, and tool-management systems, enhancing overall operational effectiveness. In this way, MachiningCloud strives to streamline the machining process, ensuring that users have all the necessary tools at their fingertips.
