Shop-Talk Mill-Cam is a simple conversational 2½
Axis programming system with some 4th axis y wrap functions, and thread
milling. Mill-CAM is
the simplest Conversational Program on the market today. Its easy to use because it works
just like a machinist thinks. The programmer
enters simple English text commands using the same logic your CNC machine uses.
Shop-Talk Mill-Cam features pull down menus, on-line help, completely icon-driven questions
and answers. Graphics are drawn as you answer the questions. Although Mill-Cam doesn't
require any geometry to be drawn prior to using it, you can. The Shop-Talk CAD program can
be used to draw the part geometry which can be imported into Mill-Cam to generate the tool
path. Mill-CAM Comes with a universal post builder to configure your post processors
