Manufacturers all over the world, from small job shops to Fortune 100 companies, get a chance to test-drive Mastercam 2022 before it is released and provide valuable feedback to help shape the final product. Participants in the Public Beta Program get an early look at dozens of powerful new tools for simple to complex jobs.
Many of the improvements in Mastercam 2022 are directly driven by Mastercam users and shops. Feedback from Public Beta releases, site visits, customer surveys, and consultation with Mastercam’s expert industry partners create the practical, shop-driven focus that helps ensure Mastercam users’ success.
Using those geometry choices, the toolpath picks the best algorithm to calculate the path. Multi-pass on Deburr toolpaths supports flat chamfered and rounded edges which gives the user added flexibility, allowing the Deburr toolpath to create a quality surface finish on larger chamfered or radiused edges.
Being able to directly edit wireframe geometry without interacting with the dialog box speeds up design and modification work. And the Overflow UV function allows users to replace multiple surfaces with inconsistent flows with a single surface for flowline toolpaths. You can also simplify surfaces for general modelling. Overflow UV generates a single unified surface with a desired UV flow on a connected set of surfaces.
In the UK, Mastercam sales and support is available through 4D Engineering.
