    Question 5-Axis Impellers

    Our shop makes impellers out of stainless steel for industrial air compressors. We are currently using Surfcam, but it seems to be lacking in certain areas. We need software that is capable of performing full 5-axis contouring (cutting along the sides of an impeller blade).

    Does anyone know if OneCNC is capable of doing this???

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong, I have not used the 5 axis module but as far as I know it is 5 axis position, but you can run profile and 3d paths, then reposition to get the desired effect.
