NX CAM for Manufacturing

NX CAM for manufacturing:

Transform your entire part manufacturing process by using a single, comprehensive computer-aided manufacturing, CAM software.

NX CAM software helps automate NC programming, accelerate machining, and manufacture high-precision parts using advanced toolpath technologies and integrated G-code-driven simulation.

Stay ahead with the NX CAM seamless integration into our wider solution for digital manufacturing. Address the evolving industry needs with a range of software for 3D printing, robotics, production line design and more.

How does NX CAM differ from other CAM software?

NX CAM software helps you generate efficient toolpaths, simulate machining operations and output production-ready programs for a wide range of computer numerical control (CNC) machines. Additionally, you can prepare part models and define machine setups using the integrated CAD capabilities.

Automated Programming: automatically generate operations for many common features in seconds by using the NX CAM feature-based machining capability. This automated approach simplifies programming and minimizes manual input, improving productivity by up to 90%.

 Advanced Machining Strategies: manufacture precision parts of any complexity using advanced machining strategies, such as ultra-fast multi-axis roughing and smooth-flowing high-feed rate finishing.

The innovative methods help you improve machined part quality, while reducing cycle time by 60%.

 Cloud-connected tool library: easily manage and use cutting tools to program your job with a modern, graphic-based library with dynamic tool preview. Rapidly import tool data from vendor catalogs, eliminating manual input and improving your programming efficiency.

Integrated simulation: digitally validate operations using the integrated simulation. NX accurately simulates the machining process, enabling you to eliminate possible errors and optimize processes before running the program on the actual CNC machine.

Postprocessing on the cloud: generate validated, production-ready programs for your CNC machine tools using Post Hub, a cloud-based postprocessing solution. It offers over 1,000 postprocessors to generate G-code tailored to the requirements of your machine tool configuration.

Integration and Collaboration: collaborate efficiently across all stages of the design-to-production process, from CAD and CAM programming to 3D printing and coordinate measuring machine (CMM) inspection programming — all in a single environment.
