Surfware® SURFCAM
 SURFCAM CAD/CAM systems allow you to machine with experience and provide cutting edge technology for NC programming of 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-axis mills, lathes, wire EDM, laser plasma and water-jet machines. SURFCAM is used worldwide for mechanical design, surface modeling, reverse engineering, prototyping, mold-making, pattern-making and production machining.
 
 
 SURFCAM includes MachineWorks, Ltd., verification and Solidworks associativity. It also includes multiple patented technologies and a variety of plug-ins to enhance functionality. The systems are easy to use and offer a superior maintenance program that includes HTML help, tutorials, tech tips, training sessions and outstanding tech support from a network of highly experienced Sales Partners. In addition, Surfware now offers SolidWorks® Parts Design Only (PDO) FREE to all eligible SURFCAM users.

SURFCAM 2-AXIS
 SURFCAM 2 Axis systems are widely recognized as a high performance, cost  effective product.
*
Machining parameters in SURFCAM 2-Axis are associative to the geometry. When any changes are made to the tool or cut information the system can easily and efficiently regenerate the toolpath.
*
SURFCAM's High Speed Machining enables the tool to maintain higher speeds because all abrupt direction changes are replaced with smooth, tangent tool motion. Smooth high-speed repositioning moves also replace the rapid moves, allowing the machine to stay in the high-speed mode continuously during the entire cycle. Because of these enhancements, toolpath feedrates can be increased and cycle times reduced. In addition, cutting-tool life is extended and wear on the machine tool is reduced due to the more constant chip loads.
*
SURFCAM's production milling module is designed to make all toolpath motion smooth and tangent. This is accomplished through the insertion of tangent arcs, within user-controlled tolerances, between all non-tangent moves. Rapid G00 moves are also replaced with smooth high-speed G01 repositioning movements that can be controlled by the NC programmer.
*
2D REST (remaining stock) machining detects and machines only those areas not cut by the previous tool. (See SRM Technology for a more advanced solution for your "REST" machining needs.)
*
SURFCAM 2 Axis includes optional 4 and 5 axis positioning and optimized drilling.
*
Spiral and zig-zag pocketing gives the user a variety of machining choices.
*
Multiple-height island machining capability and clamp avoidance offer advanced cutting in SURFCAM 2 Axis.
*
SURFCAM supports standard canned cycles-countersink, drill, peck, tap, ream, and bore-plus custom cycles, such as chip-break or case drilling.

SURFCAM 3-AXIS
 SURFCAM generates optimized 3-axis toolpaths on any surface.
* Efficiently rough mill any collection of surfaces from a billet or irregular 2D outline.
* Plunge-rough with equilateral triangular or square cut patterns.
* Constant 3D Offset finishing maintains equal scallop height regardless of surface slope variations.
* Z-Finish steep areas of the entire model while maintaining constant climb or conventional tool/part relationship.
* Single or Multi-Surface Gouge protection against several 3D check surfaces
* Steep/Shallow intelligently toggles the path style based upon surface angle.
* Unbeatable user-controlled surface finish by applying flow properties of a separate surface to specified part regions.

SURFCAM MULTI-AXIS
 SURFCAM offers true simultaneous 4 and 5-axis machining, full visualization and verification. This enables the NC programmer to move and control any combination of the machine's axes.
* 4- and 5-axis tool shank containment offers cutting through a window to simplify operations such as cylinder or manifold head porting.
* Cut with any tool shape normal to a 3D surface with a lead/lag or side angle.
* Swarf cut with the flank of the tool parallel to 3D surface
* 5-Axis trim machining allows the machinist to specify the tool vector at any point along a profile
* Full tool and shank gouge avoidance with any number of check surfaces using ball, bull and flat end mills
