November 2020:

We have been supporting one of our customer's with a new

post processor and machine simulation model set.

This one is for a Doosan Lynx 2100LYB Turning Centre.

Multi-tasking Turn/Mill Centre with full Tailstock support.

Showing Turning, Boring, Milling, Drilling and full collision checking – deliberately triggered here.

This is our first ‘half index’ turret machine showing roughing

with T1 and finishing with T13 from the same block.

Turret stations 13 to 24 are interleaved inbetween stations 1 to 12.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

We have been supporting one of our customer's with a new

post processor and machine simulation model set.

This one is for a 5 Axis Vertical Machining Centre for one of our advanced users

a medical component supplier in West Yorkshire.

This video is of 2.5D positional machining and 5 axis simultaneous machining.

April 2020:

We have been supporting one of our customer's with a new

post processor and machine simulation model set.

This one is for one of our advanced users in Scotland.

This video is of 5 axis positioning and indexing then machining.

Here we are outputting Cartesian machining coordinates with Polar indexing.

We are also outputting Heidenhain's canned cycles with LBL repetitions.

March 2020:

We have recently been working on a new post processor and machine simulation model set.

For one of our advanced defence customers.

This video is of 5 axis positioning and simultaneous machining.

Makino – DA300 – Professional 6 NC (Fanuc 31i - Model B).

February 2020:

We have been helping some of our Partners prepare for Southern Manufacturing 2020.

Here we have a demonstration for YMT Technologies and their Hedelius Acura 65EL –

5-Axis Machining Centre fitted with a Heidenhain Tnc 640 control.

Go along to Southern Manufacturing and see them on Stand E215.

January 2020:

We have been busy creating post processors and machine simulation models for some of our most

advanced users.

We have recently been working on several exciting projects including this Okuma Multus U4000 2SW.

This is for a user in North Wales, for high precision complex parts production.

Okuma Multus U4000 2SW - OSP-P300SA control.

Using FeatureCAM Ultimate and Advanced Turn/Mill.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

January 2020:

We would like to say, have a very Happy and Prosperous New Year to all of our

customers and partners.

October 2019:

IndieCAM Ltd, are now Certified as an Autodesk CAM Specialised Reseller.

Part of the MAKE - Product Design and Manufacturing CAD/CAM Software portfolio.

January 2019:

We have sold a record number of seats of Ez-EDM during the second half of 2018.

These are for supporting Agie, Charmilles, Fanuc, Makino and Sodick Wire EDM Machines.

We had initially thought that this product would reduce due to the decline in UK Tool Making.

But with customers using this process in general engineering workshops and using the

technology in other ways, it would seem to have bucked the trend.

So, if you have a Wire EDM cad/cam software enquiry, be sure to give us a call.

We have been busy creating post processors and machine simulation models for some of our most

advanced users.

We have recently been working on several exciting projects in conjunction with Whitehouse Machine Tools,

including this High Speed Spinner U5-630 5 axis machining centre.

This is for a user in the South West, for high precision complex parts production.

Spinner U5-630 - Heidenhain or Siemens control.

Using FeatureCAM Ultimate and 5 Axis Simultaneous.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

We have recently been working on several exciting projects including this Haas UMC-750

5 axis machining centre. This is for a user in Leicester, for complex parts production.

Haas UMC-750 - Haas control.

Using FeatureCAM Ultimate and 5 Axis Simultaneous.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

November 2018:

We have been busy creating post processors and machine simulation models for some of our most

advanced users.

We have recently been working on several exciting projects in conjunction with Whitehouse Machine Tools,

including this High Speed Brother Speedio S700X1 4 axis machining centre.

This is for a user in the South West, for high speed, high volume production.

Brother – S700X1 – 4 Axis Vertical Machining Centre.

This video is of 2.5D machining and 4 axis indexing.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

We have another project in conjunction with Whitehouse Machine Tools, including this

High Speed Brother Speedio R650X1 twin pallet, pallet changing machining centre.

This is for a user in the South East, also for high speed, high volume production.

Brother – R650X1 – 3 Axis Vertical Machining Centre.

This video is of 2.5D machining.

All then simulated through FeatureCAM's own Machine Simulation module.

Here we have the latest generation DMG Mori NLX2500 being used by a customer in the West Midlands.

The machine has full actual solid tool holders, many are multiple tool holders.

The user can see length and reach for collision avoidance and also if any tool holders that may have

problems being next to each other, before putting the part onto the machine.

Thus avoiding wasteful setup time, making the whole process far more efficient.

Parts are simulated in full, including the ‘Transfer’ of the billet from one spindle to the other.
