Turn/Mill

FeatureTURN/MILL enables both turning and milling features to be created on a single machine in one set-up.

Benefits:

• Supports machines with C and Y milling capabilities and sub-spindles, letting you machine more complex parts
• Easily programs drilling or milling features on the face or outside diameter of a part with the FeatureTURN/MILL feature wizard, so you get parts onto your machine tool faster
• Contains all of the milling features in FeatureMILL2.5D, including holes, slots, pockets, grooves, sides and patterns, for increased flexibility

Advanced Turn/Mill Benefits:

• FeatureTURN/MILL's Multi-Turret Turning technology controls turn/mill machines with multiple turrets, speeding production through true multi-tasking processes
• Synchronise and optimise your turn/mill operations between multiple turrets through an easy-to-use 'drag and drop' graphical interface on a time or operation-basis
• Sub-spindle and multiple spindle part transfer is available in FeatureCAM through defined feature operations
• Simultaneous B-axis turning in FeatureCAM enables you to create multiple machining orientations in a single set-up and quickly program complex machining operations
• Switch between C-axis milling and Y-axis milling to help improve the surface finish of milled parts with the tick of a box

Typical Applications:

• Complex drilling heads for the oil & gas industry
• Engine crank shafts
