What's new in hyperMILL 2018.2?

 

 

 

 

 

3D Z-level Shape Finishing

3D shape level surface extention barrel

Two new functions are available for 3D Z-level Shape Finishing:

Automatic Face Extension

During programming, the ‘Automatic face extension’* function can be used to extend the selected milling surfaces. This CAD-for-CAM function eliminates the need to modify the milling faces in the CAD system beforehand.

New Tool Types

Barrel cutters can now be used for 3D Z-level Shape Finishing, and are launched in the strategy as a standard tool. General, tangential, and conical barrel cutters are supported.

Benefit: Reduced programming time, improved milling results.
