BobCAD-CAM V24 Mill Standard

The focus for BobCAD-CAM V24 Mill Standard was based completely off of user feedback. The toolpath creation was redesigned giving the user an even easier machining process designed to walk the user step by step through setting up each machining feature, while giving the user more control over each element of each machining operation. The user interface has been improved by grouping commonly used tools together, making it easier and faster to get to the most commonly used functions in the software.

Hundreds of new descriptive images have been added to the software giving the user more confidence over controlling each aspect of the BobCAD-CAM V24 Mill Standard toolpath strategies.

Completely redesigned machining process setup focused on giving the user more control over all aspects of BobCAD-CAM's multi-operation machining features, while still maintaining BobCAD-CAM's automation of the entire machining process. The Drilling, 2 Axis, and 3 Axis Machining Wizards make cutting parts easier and faster, while giving more control to the user.

• Automatic Hole Sorting. Automatically creates separate drilling features for each individual hole size.
• Automatically assigns appropriate drilling tools for each operation inside the drilling features.
• Allows for editing of several machining features at one time.

• Independent control over system compensation and machine compensation for all roughing and finishing profiling toolpaths.
• On the fly start point and direction editing for Profile, Chamfer, and Engraving machining features, eliminating the need to create extra geometry.
• Redesigned Tool Library to make creating and editing tools faster and easier.
• Redesigned tool numbering scheme allowing the user to view and edit all tools from within any machining feature.
• Improved manual feed and speed calculator allowing users to perform SFM calculations on the fly.
• Independent flood, air, mist, and oil coolant control for each tool.
• Diameter and Height Offset register editing on the fly.
• Editing of either effective depth or overall depth of drilling tools has been added.
• Quick Trim tool to simplify the geometry cleanup process.

• Redesigned toolbars that make accessing the most commonly used functions faster and easier, while taking up less valuable screen area.
• Every icon has been redesigned, making finding needed functions easier than ever, while keeping consistency for current users.
• New default keyboard shortcuts further improving the speed of designing and machining parts.
• Post Yes/No icon has been moved to top level of the machining feature making it easier to edit and locate disabled machining features.
• Blank and Unblank for all toolpaths has been added to making moving between machining and design even easier.
• Post Yes/No for all features makes modifying your machining process even easier.
