The Aerospace Industry is poised for unprecedented growth in virtually every segment: Commercial, General Aviation, Military, and Space. The known impediment,
however, is the industry’s struggle to improve quality, reduce costs and speed time to market at the same time.
It is common wisdom that any improvement to one area seem to come at the expense of the other. SURFCAM Powered by TrueMill® overcomes this maxim -- the
effect of using SURFCAM Powered by TrueMill actually improves quality, reduces costs and dramatically increases time to market by enabling striking gains in
productivity – simultaneously!
The milling toolpaths created by SURFCAM Powered by TrueMill are highly effective on the harder metals most frequently used in Aerospace and Defense –
titanium, Inconel and aluminum among others. In many cases, machining speed doubles or even triples with the patented TrueMill technology. At the same time, quality
increases and costs are lowered.
SURFCAM Powered by TrueMill can be a significant factor in empowering Aerospace industry companies to meet the compressed time schedules, reduced costs
and increased product complexity required in today’s challenging global market.
Among other features, SURFCAM Velocity offers: TrueMill® High Speed Roughing, 5-Axis Swarf, 4-Axis Spiral, 5-Axis Functionality, and Control for all scenarios.
TrueMill® High Speed Roughing
|
TrueMill is a patented toolpath engine that has redefined high speed machining. It is the only toolpath that
intelligently manages tool load.
TrueMill increases profits by maximizing Volume Removal Rates with your existing hardware, while extending cutting
tool life and lowering machine maintenance costs.
Reduce Costs and Improve Quality on Aerospace Parts. (case study)

5-Axis Swarf
|
After TrueMill roughs away all of the material, use SURFCAM's multi-surface 5-Axis machining with straight or
tapered cutters to finish blades.
"The simultaneous 5-axis milling in SURFCAM are beyond that of most PC-based systems and exceed that of many
workstation based NC software systems that are offered at a significantly higher price." - CIMdata, Michigan, USA.

 |
4-Axis Spiral
|
Lead, lag and swarf (cutting with the side of tool). Unlimited drive and check surfaces. Machine anything you
want with full collision avoidance.
SURFCAM certified dealers are the most highly experienced in the industry at implementing and training 5-Axis
programming. You won't be buying a software that can just verify 5-Axis motion. You WILL see the reality of
machining quality 5-Axis parts.
