What is FreeMILL?

FreeMILL is a no-cost milling module that functions within our commercial CNC software, tailored specifically for programming CNC mills and routers. This completely free CAM software places no limits on duration, attempts, file saving, or lines of code! Users are empowered to generate toolpaths that guide the cutting tool along a series of parallel planes to achieve their desired shapes. Moreover, it facilitates the creation of both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths and offers comprehensive simulation capabilities for cutting and material processes. One of its notable features is the ability to output G-code compatible with your chosen CNC milling machine. Established in 1997, MecSoft Corporation stands at the forefront of developing both standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions that serve the needs of the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing industries. With its headquarters located in Irvine, CA, MecSoft is dedicated to delivering user-friendly, robust, and economical CAD/CAM software that addresses the various demands of its clientele. Their unwavering commitment to innovation guarantees that customers have access to excellent support and continually updated technology, ensuring a seamless experience. This dedication sets them apart in the competitive landscape of CAD/CAM software development.

What is CAMWorks?

CAMWorks, which is seamlessly integrated into SOLIDWORKS and Solid Edge, effectively minimizes the repetitive CAM rework typically necessitated by design changes. It enhances the manufacturing workflow by automatically modifying machining operations and toolpaths to accommodate any revisions in design. With its Automatic Feature Recognition capability, CAMWorks interprets part designs, significantly reducing the complexity of programming tasks. This software maintains a cohesive link between the design environment and the machining process, ensuring that updates to the part model are promptly reflected, thereby eliminating the time-consuming rework associated with traditional CAM systems. Remarkably, this innovative tool can decrease machining time by as much as 85% and extend tool life by up to 500%, even when handling the most challenging materials. Furthermore, the incorporation of knowledge-based machining allows for the effective capture and reuse of superior programming techniques via the Technology Database, TechDBâ„¢, which can drastically cut programming time by around 80%. In summary, CAMWorks not only boosts operational efficiency but also significantly enhances the dependability of the entire machining process, making it a valuable asset in modern manufacturing. Moreover, its capabilities ensure that manufacturers can remain competitive and responsive to design changes with minimal disruption.
