Mastercam X9 introduces improved processing logic for advanced multi-axis toolpaths. Multi-axis Link is an operation that takes a list of toolpath operations and a safety zone shape as input. The new Multi-axis Link ensures reposition moves between 2- through 5-axis operations are safe and collision-free. Now when bodies are edited, only the toolpaths directly affected by the change in the solid body are marked dirty. With Mastercam X9, the associativity between solids and toolpaths has been greatly improved. Solid Disassemble is a new Model Prep function that takes an assembly and lays each body out in a single pane. To create the most efficient cutting motion possible, Dynamic toolpaths calculate not only the area where metal will be removed they also take into account the changing condition of the material throughout various stages of machining.ĭynamic Xform allows you to switch between gnomon manipulation and geometry manipulation mode at any time without having to reselect geometry.

Mastercam X9 introduces Dynamic Motion improvements, multiaxis enhancements, and many Design and System features to make your job easier.ĭynamic Motion toolpaths follow a proprietary and sophisticated set of rules that take into consideration a broad data set. Mastercam X9 brings a new suite of programming tools focused on delivering speed, automation, and efficiency for all machining jobs.
