EDGECAM Turret Tooling and Machine Simulation

EDGECAM’s excellent simulation predictions show full CNC machine movement with collision checking. For turning centers with turrets, the mounting blocks which secure tooling to the CNC machine turret are integral to stable machining. They are also a significant collision risk.
Adding Tool Mounting Blocks to Code Wizard post processors is a fairly simple project. Including the full tooling system used on the CNC machine in the post processor significantly improves machine simulation predictions, and thereby CAM user confidence. We’re excited to explain how to add tool mounting blocks to Code Wizard post processors in our newest tech tip, and show how to use them effectively in EDGECAM!
