Product Description

CAD6 Industry is the comprehensive 2D/3D CAD/CAM solution for industrial use. In addition to CAD6 Studio the program includes a CAM plug-in and a universal, script-based post-processor for flexible and efficient generation of CNC data for machine controllers.

The CAM plug-in supports the following machining procedures: milling, drilling, turning, water jet cutting, laser cutting, cutting, plotting, and positioning. Included are post-processors for Universal DIN-ISO, Siemens DIN-ISO (milling/ turning), Heidenhain DIN-ISO (milling/turning), Heidenhain plain text (milling), isel-NCP, HP-GL, and others.

Commands like milling cutter compensation, pocket milling, milling order control, milling time calculation and a graphical 3D preview let you create drawings that are directly milled later. Extensive tool and machine settings, plus output of custom commands (such as cycles or sub-programs) by means of symbols, give you the complete control over what the post-processors finally output to the machine.

Included with your purchase: If necessary, we create a custom post-processor based on the universal post-processor. This new post-processor will then be incorporated into the next version of CAD6 Industry. All programs of the CAD6 series are 100% data-compatible.
