Take control of complex 3D cutting with confidence and efficiency
With its simple and intuitive user interface, Almacam 5-axes is a CAD/CAM software dedicated to program any type of 3D-cutting machine (laser, plasma, water-jet) regardless of the number of axes. It enables manufacturers to faster cut complex 3D parts, secure production and increase cutting accuracy while reducing setup time and operational risks.
Almacam 5-axes combines automation and simplicity of use. Providing support for advanced manufacturing functions, Almacam 5-axis adapts to every kind of situation, enabling you to cut complex parts.
“We felt the Alma software was more automated and faster. The module to create part support tools, a very important feature for us, was also more comprehensive. Alma’s methodology corresponded more closely to our business as a sub-contractor.”
Sébastien Garnier, Director of Garnier Industries
Powerful CAD/CAM features for 3D and 5-axis cutting
- Import CAD model
Import 3D CAD files and automatically analyze the geometry to prepare programming for 3D part cutting and multi-axis cutting operations. - Comprehensive modeling of the 5-axis cutting machine
Create a realistic digital environment of the machine and its kinematics to ensure accurate simulation and reliable cutting trajectories. - Automatic modeling of 3D part tooling
Automatically generate fixtures and support tooling based on the CAD model to securely hold parts during complex 3D cutting. - Automatic calculation of cutting trajectories
Generate optimized 5-axis cutting toolpaths and cutting sequences based on the 3D model. - Trajectory smoothing and avoidance trajectories
Smooth toolpaths and calculate avoidance movements to maintain continuous motion and stable cutting quality on complex 3D geometries. - Collision-free cutting trajectories
Detect potential collisions between the tool, the part and the machine to ensure safe cutting. - Creation of the CNC cutting program and workshop document
Automatically generate the NC programming file and production documentation required to run complex 3D cutting jobs.
