    5 axis software request

    Good Day
    I'm looking for 5 axis CAM software that can tool path solid/surface models with undercuts and organic shaped surfaces. Think a chess pawn shape with frills. Currently I am using Master Cam X6 and this type of object is a programing challenge. What software should I investigate further.
    Thanks for any input.

    Sounds almost like you are wanting one-click programming. I do not think you will find any software easier than any other. They are just different.

    Hello
    No I am not expecting nor am I looking for a 1 button solution. Currently I am using MasterCAM X6 and it meets most of my needs. However MC does have problems with undercuts. Delcam's PowerMill looks like it does a much better job with organic sculpturistic shapes. if you have some experience to share that would be good

    I'm confident you'll be surprised at what directMILL 5X can do in 5-axis. Please email me the part and we'll take you through it (or request a 30-day evaluation if you'd prefer).
