Does PowerMill come with full collision and gouge detection?
Yes. With each tool-path and selected cutting tool this is fully simulated and checked for gouges and collisions.
-
Does PowerMill only work with 3-axis?
No, this software works with 5 axis and has full tool collision protection on all axis.
-
Does PowerMill work with STL meshes?
Yes! It can also work with surfaces and solids too.
-
How easy is it to edit and change toolpaths in PowerMill?
It’s an instant change without re-post processing the whole project. It’s essentially an instant command.

Reviews
"Rib Machining"Since introducing PowerMill Rib Machining in to our factory we have been able to reduce our machining time on ribs, were engaged in the cut the entire time and we don't have waste or retracts. It's also reduced the amount of tools needed for this job.Director of Operations | IQ Manufacturing"Easy-to-use software helps to fill the skills gap"Having PowerMill on the shop floor makes it easier to edit programs to reflect the cutters that are available and other changes. In addition, the shop-floor operators can make small CAD changes, such as adding run-off surfaces or capping holes, without having to go back and forth from the design office.Production Director | Eccles Tooling Systems
