About

Have you ever wondered why your tool paths look great in your CAM System but not on your milling machine? This is no longer something you have to consider, because with CAMplete TruePath the answer is clear. CAMplete TruePath bridges the gap between your CAM systems and your 5-axis machines. It provides everything needed to post process, verify and simulate 5-Axis tool paths in a 3D environment. CAMplete TruePath is an easy-to-use application that takes you from your CAM System to your machine efficiently and safely. Using toolpath data from all industry leading CAM Systems, TruePath’s customizable post-processor allows you to output your NC programs the way you need, with no on-machine editing required. 5-axis simulation, visualization and verification tools give you the confidence of knowing how your machine will behave before you run a single line of G-code. CAMplete works closely with CAM companies, their applications engineers and end users to ensure compatibility.

About

EDGECAM is a market leading computer aided manufacturing (CAM) system for NC part programming. With unparalleled ease of use and sophisticated toolpath generation, it’s the only CAM system you’ll need for milling, turning and mill-turn machining. EDGECAM utilises your in house knowledge and experience to drive the CAM process with automation tools to suit different applications - allowing you to maintain your competitive edge. Associative native CAD model loading technology allows instant model manipulation, updates and rapid tool path regeneration. ‘Workflow’ technology enables accelerated and efficient programming of CNC machine tools. Edgecam is used by many of the World’s leading Manufacturers to improve productivity and quality from sub-contact to corporate organisations. Industry leading training and support on a global basis from dedicated support teams ensures excellent response times.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • To get 5-6 parts programmed daily. It helps a lot on quoting using my PCIs for a quick toolpaths. The thing called WORKFLOW interface are really good remind me working on the machine, load the model, set up the environment stock fixture machine, than create features for holes, toolpath and Generate NC code is dead simple.
  • Marie Sparshatt Ltd, as a small sub-contract machine shop, in 2013 we set out to review various CAD/CAM packages. After about 6 months, we finally decided upon Edgecam, as it appeared to be the one that would suit all our Mazak machines and our budget. I loved “Part Modeler” (spelt that way), as it enabled me to dream up parts in my mind and create solid parts. I adapted to it quickly, although it had some very strange quirks, which over time I got used to working around. Even though the company went through a few changes from Vero through Planit to Hexagon, the support team were great and fairly responsive. I guess that’s what you’re paying for :!

Cons

  • Complex 5 axis roughing in 2023.1 not that good but 2024.1 should improve based on the support, so I am waiting to see that.
  • The whole Edgecam CAD/CAM experience appeared to be straddling 3 separate applications: ‘Part Modeler’, ‘Edgecam’ & the tool-path checker ‘Simulator’. The linking between the 3 proved to be fairly tenuous. All post processors had to be ‘customised’ especially for your machine, incurring extra expense. To my surprise there were no ‘off the shelf’ solutions, or ones that could be tweaked. This involved filling out an extensive report on each machine’s G-Code capabilities for their post creators to do the magic :o However, in order to modify the posts that we had already paid for, I had to be granted special licence to use their “Code Wizard”. In addition to these hurdles, their ‘code protection’ was on another level. I chose the ‘network licence’ over the ‘dongle’ option as I needed to be able to run the software from wherever I was working. The ‘Licence Manager’, to grant such privileges, was so finicky and required VPNs along with my customised batch scripts and mapped drives to achieve remote working. On top of this, the tool management was based in Microsoft SQL Server, which added another layer of complication when sharing and performing off-line backups. Is this paranoia at its best or just bad planning? I guess that’s what you get when you purchase these fragmented software companies and attempt to ‘shoe horn’ them into a “one solution”.
