Mastercam Dynamic Motion Technology
Highlights at a glance
- Up to 85 % shorter cycle times: thanks to intelligent tool paths and constant chip volume
- Longer tool life: optimum cutting edge load protects the tool and machine
- Maximum process reliability: uniform processing without abrupt changes of direction
- Variety of materials: reliable for steels, superalloys and difficult-to-machine materials
- No additional costs: Dynamic Motion is integrated in all relevant Mastercam modules
Maximum cutting performance with minimum machining time
Mastercam’s Dynamic Motion technology stands for highly efficient toolpaths that drastically reduce machining times and significantly extend tool life. Smooth, dynamic movements reduce cutting forces, protect machines and speed up production processes – ideal for demanding materials and complex components.Typical areas of application and processing strategies
- 2D and 3D milling: efficient roughing and finishing of complex components
- 5-axis machining: uniform material removal even with free-form surfaces
- Turning: constant chip formation for longer tool life and more precise cuts
- Raw part machining: optimized tool paths for a wide range of raw part geometries
- Residual material processing: targeted reworking for perfect surfaces
All important functions and toolpaths at a glance
- Dynamic 2D and 3D milling - automated feature detection, constant chip load, optimized cutting distribution
- Multi-axis roughing - efficient 5-axis machining with automatic steep range detection
- Dynamic turning - uniform engagement for higher productivity and up to 300 % longer tool life
- Infeed and up-cut variants - variable strategies for minimum tool load
- Residual material detection - automatic adaptation to blanks and existing component geometries
- Omit edge processing and pockets - protects tools and reduces non-productive times
Extra boost: All Dynamic Motion functions are integrated directly into the Milling 2D/3D, Multi-Axis and Turning modules – no separate add-on required.
Production benefits of Dynamic Motion technology for manufacturing companies
- Significant time savings: shorter processing and non-productive times
- Lower costs: less tool wear and optimized machine running times
- Greater process stability: uniform cutting forces and reliable heat dissipation
- Flexibility: can be used in all Mastercam modules and for a wide range of materials
