Multi-Function Machining

Multi function machining in Siemens PLM Software NX CAM can address the latest generation of complex milling and turning combination machines and support simultaneous multi axis operations.

For Multi-Function Machining, complete turning functionality is required. NX provides a complete turning solution that is both easy to program and fully featured.

Complete milling functionality is also required. Mill turn programming in NX addresses in depth milling capability, including complex 5 axis machining.

NX CAM automatically generates the correct profile for working on tricky mill-turn parts. The in-process workpiece moves easily between milling and turning.

Multi-turret and multi-spindle turning centers can be easily synchronized in NX CAM, with full visualization and timing comparisons.

Post Processor simplicity is maintained by using NX Post Builder to create small component posts that can be easily merged.

Full G-code simulation in NX CAM helps to validate the mill turn programs, eliminating surprises that can appear due to post processing.

NX Advantages:

  • Synchronized graphical time display for each channel.
  • Integrated with NX Post Builder and support for multi stage posts.
  • Integrated solid based simulation based on G-code.
