madCAM Expert Level

madCAM Expert Level is the 3D CAM plug-in for Rhinoceros which gives the ability to perform both modeling and toolpath creation inside Rhino 3D. madCAM Expert Level is perfect for 3D CAM for CNC-milling machines. All menus for controlling madCAM Expert Level and generated toolpaths are inside Rhino 3D and stored together with your model.

Developed for toolmaking (Mould And Die) as well as for prototype productions, madCAM Expert Level generates a non-collision toolpath with excellent cutting action. Where demand for accuracy and perfect surface smoothness is required, madCAM Expert Level is the 3D CAM plug-in of choice.

madCAM Expert Level is meant for the NC-operator who demands an easy-to-use and efficient system. It facilitates effective manufacturing in a short period of time. The operator is provided with clarified results of chosen parameters. madCAM Expert Level handles all 3D models that Rhinoceros handles and is able to generate NC-codes to all kinds of 5-axis milling machines. A built-in post processor is adaptable for different kinds of controlling systems.

Roughing

Removes all the unnecessary material from the workpiece in an effective way. madCAM Expert Level cuts the part in z-levels. The operator can choose a ramp angle to create a smooth approach of the cutter after every retract and traverse.

Finishing

Gives the final surface finish of the part. madCAM Expert Level effectively calculates cuts for both planar and z-level finishing. The operator controls the limit with an angle for relatively horizontal and relatively vertical surfaces. The limit is calculated from the surface normal.

Remachining

This method offers an opportunity to remove material that remains where the previous cutter could not reach due to size of cutter. madCAM Expert Level has strategies for removing material calculated from the true stock model, inside boundary curves and with surface dual contact (pencil trace).

Curve Milling

This includes methods for machining from curves. The curve milling offers opportunities for Engraving and strategies for toolpath projection inside boundary curves and between two curves.

2 1/2 D Machining

This includes methods for machining from curves or surface edge curves. Profiling, Pocketing, Facing and Drilling.
