Post-Processor Development Software



CAM-POST FOUNDATION integration inside Mastercam.

ICAM Technologies Corporation will launch CAM-POST FOUNDATION at IMTS 2014. CAM-POST FOUNDATION is an entry-level 2/3 axis NC post-processor development software that can be easily upgraded to more advanced ICAM products that support multi-axis machining applications and other advanced technologies such as mill-turns, waterjets and wire EDMs.

Available under a monthly lease, CAM-POST FOUNDATION allows users to create unlimited 2-axis lathe and 3-axis mill post-processors behind popular CAD/CAM systems such as CATIA, Mastercam and NX. "Manufacturers can now take control of their manufacturing environment by easily and quickly creating, modifying and managing their own 2/3 axis post-processors without relying on third-party products and services," said a company spokesperson.

CAM-POST FOUNDATION includes 50 metric and 50 imperial controller-based post-processors that are ready to execute inside CATIA, Mastercam and/or NX. All of these post-processors can be edited to add specific machine tool functions (spindle speed, block numbering, coolant start, program header preferences, etc.). These post-processors can also be used as templates to create completely new controller-based post-processors, in addition to the library provided in CAM-POST FOUNDATION.
