5 axis machining- TopSolid'Cam
The integrated CAM solution for tool makers
The tooling departments of today need to optimize the machining of their products. This accounts for the processing of cavities with HSC techniques as well as for automatic machining operations for mold plates with the holes and pockets typical from mechanical design. TopSolid’Cam and TopSolid’Wire provide all the features that are necessary to fulfil these requirements. Both products combine the know-how and experience that Missler has gained in the demanding CAD/CAM market which covers all the facets of machining over the past 20 years.
