Siemens NX CAM
CAM software for NC programming
Take the step towards end-to-end part manufacturing and deliver high-precision parts through digitization.
Program CNC machine tools, control robotic cells, command 3D printers, and monitor quality with a single software platform. Digitize your manufacturing business to increase its productivity and profitability.
NX X
NX X is a cloud CAD solution for designing faster, better and everywhere. SaaS-based, it combines the power of NX with the flexibility of the cloud to boost product innovation.
NX CAM
Program every task using a single software. NX CAM offers extensive and integrated CNC programming capabilities in one system. Based on a consistent 3D model, you can streamline all related information into a single digital process.
You can streamline and automate CNC programming while reducing cycle time using powerful application-specific tools. From 2.5-axis operation and shape production to simultaneous 5-axis milling and high-volume production, you can use CAM software to manufacture better parts faster.
NX CAM offers capabilities for:
• 2.5D milling
• 3-axis milling
• Simultaneous 5-axis milling
• Turning
• Turn-mill combination
• WEDM (wire electrical discharge machining)
• Additive (hybrid) operations (WAAM, DED, MJF, …)
• Others: grinding, sinker EDM, custom CNC
FEATURE BASED MACHINING
Automate CNC programming with NX Feature Based Machining and reduce programming time and effort.
With this technology, Siemens NX can automatically detect the machine processes needed to manufacture your part based on geometry and tolerances. Feature-based machining allows the built-in feature recognition engine to analyze shapes and quickly program CNC strategies to process these shapes – all automatically.
Programming becomes easy!
NC SIMULATION
Verify your programming to manufacture your part with confidence using integrated CNC code simulation.
Within Siemens NX, besides path simulation and verification, it is also possible to choose CNC simulation, which allows you to visualize the generated CNC code by applying CNC machine simulation.
During a machine tool simulation, the CNC code is input and displayed as it will be manufactured in reality. This works for all common CNC controls. Additionally, you can also read an existing CNC file to simulate it.
NX ROBOTICS
Program robots to generate tool paths that require a very precise approach. Combine these tool paths with traditional pick-and-place operations to reduce production time.
All of this can also be done from the familiar NX environment without the need for separate software programs.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Discover how Additive Manufacturing can accelerate your processes by adding material through 3D printing. Or work in a completely hybrid manner by combining additive and subtractive work on different materials.
Directly command your machines for both planar AM and multi-axis AM capabilities.
