CAM-Way

2.5-axis CAM for preparing glass machining from geometry.

CAM-Way prepares polishing, drilling, grinding, grooving and other machining cycles, automatically recognizes profiles and holes, and generates NC code for 3-axis machining centers.

What it solves

Moving from drawing to machining requires cycles, tools, entries/exits, references and fixturing. CAM-Way automates much of that preparation while keeping it visually editable.

How it works

  1. 01ImportReceive geometry from CAD-Way, Geo-Way or external files.
  2. 02RecognizeDetect profiles, holes and possible operations.
  3. 03PrepareAssign cycles, tools, references and suction cups.
  4. 04Post-processGenerate tool list and NC code.

Workflow according to the catalogue

From profile to 2.5D machining

CAM-Way recognises profiles and holes in the drawing and lets you assign operations by drag & drop. It then generates job sheets and CAM-DXF output for compatible machining centres.

From geometry to machine

Scan-Way, Geo-Way, CAD-Way and CAM-Way cover different levels of complexity

The catalogue does not present these tools as islands. A geometry can start from a template, a parametric shape or a DXF, be corrected in CAD and end up as CAM operations ready for a machining centre.
