NCG CAM – Base Module
Area Clearance Roughing

AEROSPACENCG CAM’s automatic roughing of surface data is suitable for all types of 2D
or 3D forms, creating an optimised, smooth cutting motion for high speed
machining (HSM) while maintaining, part accuracy, cutting tool life andmachine tool life. All cutters and tool-holders are collision protected tomaximise efficiency and stock model visualisation of the machined part isavailable at every stage of the manufacturing process.
NCG CAM will always attempt to helix into the job when roughing, but willthen automatically adapt to a profile ramping condition by ramping down in Z,
while following the toolpath if a helix entry is not possible.
Any area below the cutter that is too small to be area cleared, (based on
indexable tipped milling tooling which can not centre cut or plunge), thepasses are discarded automatically. NCG CAM is then able to detect theseareas and locally machine them with rest roughing, avoiding almost all "aircutting".
NCG CAM fully gouge protects the cutting tool and the tool-holder, which isvery important when you may have a tool-holder and/or tool that is not longenough to reach. Likewise, it also provides gouge protection when machining
using 5-axis machine tools ( 3+2 axis ), and machining areas which might bedeemed inaccessible with the standard 3-axis approach.
Cutting tools and tool-holders can be specified either from a standard toolingcatalogue or users can define their own custom libraries using the holder
designer. This can then be stored specific to each machine tool, or material
being machined.

NCG CAM Core Roughing
NCG CAM has an additional routine for roughing which is ideal for core forms, where the machinist wants torough away the material by machining from the outside, whilst maintaining climb milling. All toolpaths start infresh-air at the given Z-depth, and work into the middle.
NCG CAM creates a safe boundary from the outside form of the core. All toolpaths then start from this safe
boundary, approach the material with a lead on arc, machine with no more than half the diameter of thecutter, then lead off with an arc away from the material back into the safe zone.

Raster Roughing & Zig-Zag Roughing
Zig-zag roughing in NCG CAM will take linear cuts across the job at fixed Z levels, similar to area
clearance or core roughing passes. As these passes are linear, there is far less data involved and fewerchanges of machine directions. At each level a profile pass is performed to remove the cusps around theparts profile at that level, before moving down to the next Z-level.

NCG CAM has a raster roughing routine that will allow the roughing out of a part with a raster strategy thatis also broken into Z-bands. When the cutter comes up against the form it follows the form up to the top of
the Z-band for those passes; this ensures there is not a big step left. If using a ball-nose cutter the passes
can be staggered to leave the minimum cusp height from the bottom of the cutter.
The linking for raster roughing passes has options for one-way and bi-directional.

Zig-zag and raster roughing are ideally suited to softer materials and controllers with a smaller look aheador that are not able to read/load data very fast.

Adaptive Area Clearance

Adaptive area clearance eliminates full width cuts using a concept similar to trochoidal milling.
This unique cutting technique is aimed towards high speed machining with solid carbide cutters. It
provides the ability to safely cut using the full length of the flute at the optimum cutting speed for thematerial and part. Tool wear is spread evenly, cutting more on the flute than the bottom of the cutter,
reducing deflection and the potential for vibration by maintaining a constant load on the cutter. The
technique is particularly suitable for cutting hard materials and also some electrode manufacturing. The
strategy automatically adjusts the toolpath for efficient and safe machining, improving cutting conditions
and allowing more consistent and possibly higher machining speeds to be maintained.
As well as significantly improving tooling life, adaptive area clearance can reduce machining time by anaverage of 25% over conventional roughing as the machine uses the full flute length of the cutting tool,and the machine runs at the optimum speed without exceeding its limits at an isolated point.
The linking order is very important, so thelinking is done at the same time as the passes
are calculated.
After each level has been cleared using all theflute length, additional passes can be made to
reduce the size of the terraces on the 3D form.
These additional passes will be either profile or
clearance passes as required, depending on
the material remaining or the shape of the part.

MOULD, TOOL & DIE

When creating the passes it is possible to stagger the passes. This is of benefit if roughing with a ballnose cutter as the cusp height on the bottom of the cutter is kept to a minimum. When linking zig-zag
roughing passes, there are options for one-way, bi-directional and zig-zag for the stock removal passes
and climb or conventional for the profile pass.

Vibration Free Machining
When creating area clearance or core roughing toolpaths, NCG CAM has an option for anti-vibration
machining. This feature greatly reduces vibration, an important feature for all machinists. This helps tomaintain consistent cutting conditions, prolonging the life of the machine tool and cutting tools. In turn thisproduces a more accurate part at the roughing and rest roughing stages, enabling the finishing toolpaths
to provide consistently more accurate parts with a good surface finish, saving both time and money. Thisis done by holding the cutter off the side walls when cutting the bottom and lifting the cutter up slightly
when cutting the sides

MOTORSPORTS

Feed-Rate Optimisation
NCG CAM has feed-rate optimisation for area-clearance,core roughing, rest roughing and water-line machining. The
software is aware of the cutting conditions, if the current
toolpath is machining an external corner, then the feed-rate
specified can be maintained. In areas such as internal
corners where the cutter will be in full contact, NCG CAM
looks ahead and adjusts the feed-rate down to maintainaccuracy and prolong tool-life.
When NCG CAM is performing a ramping entry move forarea clearance roughing, the ramping feedrate is used. Oncethe cutter is to depth, the cutting feed-rate can also be
reduced as this first cut will be the full width of the cutter.
This is then returned to the normal feed-rate once the cutter
is not making a full width cut.

Rest Roughing
NCG CAM’s rest roughing can be done in two ways.
The user creates the first roughing toolpath from a solid block of material as previously described, in area
clearance or core roughing. Rest roughing is then created automatically by selecting the next cutting tool,
along with the previous toolpath(s). The rest roughing toolpath is created, eliminating fresh air cutting andonly machining in the areas the previous cutting tool has missed. Another stock model can then be madewith the combined toolpaths to show the progression.

Rest roughing can also be used when machining castings. The passes can be trimmed back to anothersurface model such as the casting form seen below. The resultant rest toolpath is fast to create and cuts out
multiple tooling operations, fresh air cutting and set-up time.

Stock Models

Waterline ( Z –Level ) Machining Using Surface Contact Angles
Waterline passes can be used for semi-finish and finish machining themore vertical areas of a part. If a slope angle is specified, for example
between 30° – 90°, the steeper areas are machined, leaving the shallower
areas between 0° – 30° for more appropriate strategies. Waterline
machining also has the feed-rate optimisation option. Linking options forwaterline passes include bi-directional and one-way machining.
Bi-directional machining will maintain contact with the part by climb milling one-way, then conventional
milling the other, but should only be used for non-critical machining. One-way machining is the default andensures a climb milling cutting action, maintaining tool-life accuracy and good surface finish. The linking
move may be on the surface, or can be forced off the surface with user defined angle of lead in / out andlead extension to help with cutting some specialist alloy materials. It is also possible to set conventional
milling if required.

Horizontal Area & Horizontal Core Machining

Horizontal area passes are used to finish machine flat surfaces more efficiently by using flat bottom cutters.
Horizontal area passes are aimed towards cavities, while horizontal core passes start off the block andmachine in from the side making them more suitable for core forms, whilst extending tool life.
Horizontal area and horizontal core machining both have
similar smoothing characteristics to area clearance andcan detect all flat surfaces on a part, with or without
using boundaries.
Should the user require to machine these flat areas withmore than one pass, the passes can be axially (along the tool axis) offset
by a user any number of times.

Raster & Perpendicular Raster Machining
Raster toolpaths are used for finishing in conjunction with steep and shallow cutter contact angles andanother machining routine, typically waterline. The raster toolpath would have a cutter contact angle ofaround 0° – 40° and waterline 30° – 90°. This approach uses the best machining combination forfinishing complex 3D surfaces and can be used on older CNC milling machines or high speed machines
alike.
Perpendicular raster toolpaths are used for finish machining thewhole component with a constant surface finish and at the same time
maintain a climb milling direction. Perpendicular as it suggests,
machines using raster passes in one direction. It omits passes on thesteep faces that are parallel with the cutting direction and then fills in
the gaps with another raster toolpath at 90° to the previous, thus
maintaining surface finish and climb machining.
Linking options include one-way and bi-directional, plus options fordown-milling (for 3D machining with carbide-insert cutters) and upmilling (for 3D finishing with solid carbide ball cutters).

PRECISION ENGINEERING

Stock models can be created from one or more toolpaths, which canbe 3, 3+2 or 5 axis, or a combination. Stock models can be used forthe visualisation of the machined part on the screen, eliminating any
costly test cutting.
The stock model can be used with the part surface and the material
depth comparison tool to 'see' the amount of material still needs tobe machined. Sectioning with a clipping plane can give useful information on remaining
material.
These stock models can be used for rest machining subsequent operations, minimising
fresh air cutting and so reducing the machining time.

Spiral Machining

RAPID PROTOTYPINGThis creates an archimedean spiral toolpath from a given focal point,
generating a constant contact as it machines within a given boundary. It is
ideally suited for use on round shallow areas using contact angles between
0° – 30°, in conjunction with the waterline machining for the more verticalfaces 30° – 90°.

Radial Machining
Similar to spiral machining, radial machining also starts from a focal point,providing the user with the ability to create radial passes. Some unique
options include the ability to stop short of the centre where the radial
passes become very dense.
The focal point for the radial or spiral machining is detected automatically,or can be determined by the user. This routine can also be used inconjunction with cutter contact angles.

3D Constant Offset Machining
The constant offset machining strategy is used for maintaining a constantequidistant step-over from one tool pass to the next, irrespective of the slope
angle of the part. This can also be used in conjunction with cutter contact
angles, within any boundary or applied to the whole part.

Morph Machining
Morph machining allows the user to control a toolpath using flow boundaries
and direction profiles. This cavity form is an ideal example of this strategy.
Morph machining can be used in conjunction with cutter contact angles.

Pencil Milling
The pencil milling routine is to finish corners which might otherwise havecusp marks left from previous machining operations. This is ideal formachining into corners where the surface radius is the same as thecutter corner radius. Single pass pencil milling gives a high surface
finish ready for polishing. When machining, the toolpath maintains climb
milling as default and can be used in conjunction with cutter contact
angles. As with all toolpaths in NCG CAM they can be animated alone
or with holders. See the pencil milling example to the left.

Parallel Pencil Milling
Parallel pencil milling is an extension of pencil milling, in that theuser can determine the number and step-over of multiple-passes
either side of the pencil toolpath. This is particularly useful when theprevious cutting tool has not been able to machine all the internal
corner radii to size. These multiple passes, will machine theremaining internal radii and any additional material left by theprevious cutting tool, machining from the outside into the corner.
This creates a good surface finish to the true form and can be usedin conjunction with cutter contact angles.

Rest Finishing Machining
The rest finishing is aimed at semi-finishing and finishing internal
corners. The area machined is limited by a reference cutter,defined by the user. A ball nose cutter is used, steep areas are
separated from shallow areas, like all other types of passes thecutter and holder are protected from gouging. Spiral like linking
allows for the milling direction to be maintained in the shallow
areas. In the steep areas, the cutter is kept on the part as muchas possible, reducing any air cutting.

Corner Offset Machining

Boundary Machining
Boundary machining, machines along an open or closed boundary
profile. A negative machining thickness can be used to machine atconstant depth below the surface being machined and can be used inconjunction with cutter contact angles.
Boundary machining can be used for the machining of mould tool
runner detail, or applied to engraving boundary shapes and text which
can be generated using the Windows True TypeTM fonts within the
NCG CAM system. The available fonts will depend on the users
Windows TM operating system.

Surface Analysis
The curvature function allows the user to quickly find out what thesmallest radii is on the part to aid cutter selection. Internal andexternal radii are filterable and the radii range user definable.
For quick identification this is done graphically using a colour
overlay to the surfaces and the cursor tool tip provides anaccurate size.

The stock model analysis uses
the triangulated surfaces and astock model to provide the depthof the remaining material.
This works for 3-axis or 3+2 axis
parts, using similar type ofgraphical display as for thecurvatures.

A draft function shows draft
angles (tapers from the tool axis)
using a similar style of graphicaldisplay as the curvature.
This could aid the selection of atapered cutter and or type of toolpath.

FORGING DIES

Corner offset machining is similar to constant offset machining. Howeverwith this technique, rather than starting from an outside boundary andworking in towards the centre of the part, a set of pencil milling passes
are created on the features of the part, then a toolpath calculated over
the whole part from those features. The toolpath maintains a constantand equidistant surface finish over the whole part. The resultant surface
finish in the corner is significantly better than 3D constant offset
machining depending on the shape of the part, as the toolpath follows
the 3D form and features and can be used in conjunction with cutter
contact angles.

True Surface Machining
NCG CAM machines using triangulations as standard, which are quick to calculate and check against forgouge free machining, but can leave fine witness lines from the triangulation that can be seen on someoccasions (depends on the curvature of the part and triangulation tolerance).

PATTERNMAKING

True surface machining is optional for users to select, should they wish. Machining the surfaces spaces
the points in the NC Tape file more uniformly, giving a better / smoother machine movement on somemachine tools. However, the calculations to ensure the machining is gouge free will take longer in mostcases.

machining . Right - Machining triangulations.

Above – Machined part . Left - True surface
machining. Right - Machining triangulations.

The better the surface finish means less hand polishing, which saves time and money, it also reduces any
mis-match / flash caused by polishing rolling/belling corners.

Along Curve Machining and 2D Cutter Compensation
Machining along a curve is just as it says - it is the curve that is machined not the surface data. This willallow a toolpath to be generated below the surfaces if needed.
Curves can be read in from the geometry file or extracted from the model. If extracted from the model thecurve may be 3D and will be respected as 3D when machined. Curves can also be extracted as 2D curves
to be used for 2D machining. These extracted curves contain accurate lines and arcs to get the desired
NC Tape file with circular arc moves. There is also a convert curve to boundary function
Open curves can be joined to get a continuous
profile – often in a model it will be several bits ofcurve that require joining to reduce the number ofretract moves.
The along curve machining supports 2D cutter
compensation (G41 & G42 or cutter left/cutter right).
This enables 2D profiles to be sized on the machine
tool; the toolpath has arc fitting for optimised output.
Cutter compensation is only available on a 2D curve.
Creating multiple points for start hints allows the user
control over the start position and for several curves
to be machined within the same operation.
A pass extension will allow the toolpath to beextended out (open profiles) to the cutter can beforced to start clear of the part, for a better cutter
approach and cutting conditions.
The optional pass overlap allows the cutter to overlap the starting position (closed profiles) to help reduce a‘tool line’, giving a better surface finish.

3+2 Five Axis Machining
3+2 multi-axis machining has an easy to use graphical interface,
including being able to snap to the surface normal for machining.
This enables the user to reach deep and complex areas by rotating
the part or the head of the machine tool through a combination ofA, B or C axis motion. Once in position, all machining routines areavailable and are fully gouge protected for the tooling and theholder and can be used in conjunction with cutter contact angles.

Rest Areas Options

This allows the input of the previously used cutter size orreference cutter to be specified. Passes will only be generated
in areas that are inaccessible to the reference cutter. All rest
area calculations can be done without the need forboundaries, and steep and shallow cutter contact angles canbe applied.

Ease of Use in Changing Machining Area Boundaries

NCG CAM has an input tab available on
all dialogs, once the passes have beenmade. This input tab, allows the user tochange the input boundary or surfaces
and re-calculate the passes.

Offset Protection Surfaces
Although NCG CAM is not a modeling system, it has somefunctions to enable the user to modify and protect surfaces
ready for manufacture. Offset surface is a useful feature for theprotection of the split-line or shut–off of a mould-tool, but isideally suited to tool repair work where you want to stay off
polished surfaces in the mould, further protecting those surfaces
during machining operations.

MEDICAL PARTSNCG CAM has rest area machining options on all thefinishing routines, such as waterline, raster, spiral, radial,constant step-over, parallel pencil passes, corner offset
passes, morphed and boundary passes.

Edit Surface Trimming Holes & Ruled Surface
When machining components or moulds, it is sometimes necessary to remove
holes or other apertures from surfaces to enable more efficient manufacture.
NCG CAM has functionality which will enable the user to remove individual
holes, even on doubly curved surfaces, or remove the complete inside
trimming edges as shown right.
NCG CAM also has the ability to create internal fillets, this can in some instances allow
a more flowing toolpath. Planar patches can also be create to cap or protect areas if needed.
It is also possible to create a ruled surface between 2 curves to aid machining past the end of a surface.

Hole Detection & Drilling

DIE CASTINGNCG CAM has automatic hole detection for allholes, chamfers and cones that form part of thesame hole composite. When detecting holes they
can be filtered by minimum or maximum diameters,
depth, angle (tool axis) colour.
NCG CAM will then display a number of folders
representing all the axis directions found. These canthen be sub-divided into drilling data folders withholes of the same size and depth. The various
cycles can then be applied. Cylindrical holes,
chamfers and cones, that have the same tool axis
and drilling start point are connected, so multiple
cycle operations can be performed.
Cycles supported on all post-processors are: spot
drilling, deep drilling, deep drilling with chip break,reaming, tapping left and right hand, thread milling(internal, external, left have and right hand), boring,boring with spindle orientation and bore milling. Boremilling may be emulated for some controllers.

Electrode Machining
Within NCG CAM there is a spark-gap variable that can be used toaid the manufacturing of electrodes for EDM. By using the spark-gap
variable in conjunction with the marcos, the user can make anotherelectrode with different spark-gap with very little input.

Tool-Holder & Cutting Tool Libraries

Shop Floor Documentation
Tool sheets are automatically created in XML / HTML format and have the option to include graphics. The
tool sheets are vital if the part is to be machined by someone other than the person who programmed it. For
parts that are machined quite often, (a perfect example being a forge die that may be on the machine for recut 2 or 3 times a week), the tooling sheet ensures the operator knows which tool and tool size machineseach part.

Part Inspection
NCG CAM has an inspection module which allows themachined part to be inspected while still on the CNC machine
tool.
This is particularly useful for large components which takevaluable time to take off the machine tool, send to theinspection department, and set-up again if re-machining isrequired. Other applications that the part inspection is useful forcomplex 3D doubly curved components which can only beinspected to the original surface model, or for the checking of
spark-erosion electrodes for accuracy of negative spark-gap
allowances prior to being used in the spark erosion process.
Inspection vectors are created graphically on the surface modelby the user, or a blanket grid can be made automatically withina given boundary. These vectors are then converted toinspection probe motions, which are sent to the CNC machine.
This in turn sends back data to the part inspection filewhich compares the machined part with the original
surfaces. The results can be displayed graphically, intabular form , as a table on the computer screen, or as an
Excel spreadsheet.
Since the inspection takes place on the machine tool,
should there be the need for any further machining, it canbe carried out straight away, saving valuable time.
The part inspection is currently available on CNC
machines with Heidenhain controls that support probing.

CORE & CAVITY MACHININGNCG CAM can store a wide range of toolholders and cutting tools in separate libraries,
so the users can set-up a range of holders
which are suitable for use with the cutting tool.
Both the cutting tools and holders can becreated graphically and then stored in therelevant library. These libraries can be specified
and named for individual machine tools ormaterials, and set-up to have tool numbers,
spindle speeds, rapid feed, ramp feed, cutting
feed and coolant or air blast options.

NCG CAM – Simultaneous 5-Axis Add-on Module

ELECTRODE MACHINING

Simultaneous 5-axis Add-on Module
NCG CAM simultaneous 5-axis module is an add-on to the basemodule of NCG CAM. It does not run as a standalone product.
Simultaneous 5-axis allows the use of shorter, more rigid cuttersfor higher feed-rates and optimised machining time. All toolpaths
have automatic collision prevention for both cutter and toolholder.
The 5-axis is aimed at finishing operations, supporting cutter
types - ball-nose, flat bottomed, bull-nosed, taper cutters.
Due to the complexity of many 5-axis toolpaths, the passes andlinking are performed as a single operation. The 5-axis also
needs to see the surfaces and any curves as NURB's.

Advanced 5-axis Toolpaths for Mould & Die Machining
Tool axis control allows the user to have some control of how the tool tilts:• Tilt through or away from a point• Tilt through or away from a curve• Full gouge avoidance of cutter and holder• Minimise side tilt to avoid collision• Lead/lag and tilt angles available• Minimal tilt to avoid holder collisions• 3, 4, or 5-axis options. When selecting 4-axis, the user has
to say which axis the 4th axis rotates about.
The options available may change depending or the type of 5-axis toolpath.
In the linking the user can control the entry / exit moves and the transition.

Surfaces are separated into drive surfaces and check surfaces. The drive surface is the surface that is
machined, the check surfaces are used to limit the machining area. It is possible to use check curves overcheck surfaces. It is not uncommon to have 2 sets of check surface/curves.

Swarf Machining
In NCG CAM using swarf machining allows the sideof the cutter to be used, keeping it orthogonal with thesurface; a lead/lag angle can still be applied if
needed. With swarf machining it is also possible tooffset the passes along the tool-axis.

Morph surface machining machines the drive surface, with options for zigzag, one-way and spiral - additional options for climb or conventional
milling are also available.
Though the shape of the part is a major factor, the spiral option can resultwith the toolpath staying on the part all the time, whereas another style oftoolpath would have to retract from the surfaces more often. Whenmorphing between two surfaces/curves the step-over can change
depending on the shape of the part.

Parallel Cut Surface Machining
Parallel cut surface machining machines a drive surface in parallel cuts, at an angle to a specific axis, X,Yand Z .
Machining options allow for the cutter to be kept normal to the surface and zigzag, one-way and spiral
options for the cutting direction.

Automatic 3 to 5-axis Conversion
NCG CAM has the ability to automatically convert some types of 3-axis
toolpaths to a 5-axis toolpath, which can save valuable machining time,
tooling costs and tool life.
In most cases the 3 to 5-axis conversion of existing NCG CAM toolpath is forminimal side tilt only to avoid holder collisions, but other options include:• 4 or 5-axis control• Tilt away or through a point• Tilt away or through a curve• Lead / lag angles and side tilt
• Fixed tilt angle

Machine Tool Simulation

The machine tool simulation allows the user to simulate the machine movement. This is generally very
important for 5-axis toolpaths, where it is often difficult to visualise the real position of the machine when
animating the toolpath. By running the toolpath through the machine simulation, you can be sure there will be
no collision between the machine head and the bed/table of the machine.
Like the toolpath animator the user can control the simulation speed, zoom in/out. Should there be a collision,
it will be highlighted graphically and a dialogue is displayed to inform the user. The machine tool simulation is
also able to simulate the stock being removed pass by pass.

INJECTION MOULDS

Morph Surface Machining

NCG CAM – GeneralMulti-tasking Capability & Parallel Processing

BLOW MOULDSThe NCG CAM kernel was one of the first CAM systems to utilise multithreading capabilities and allow the users to calculate 2 or more toolpaths
simultaneously. With NCG CAM the user can keep working, even making
use of operations that have not finished calculating with the new task being
placed in a queue until a processor is available.
Parallel processing improves the use of CPU's further still, by significantly
speeding up calculation time already improved by multi-threading. For
example, when calculating rest finishing passes, rather than using a single
processor, NCG CAM will spread the calculation among all the available
processors.
Almost all PC’s today will be dual core, if not quad core and so support
parallel processing. Basically, this means that your PC could support
between 2 and 8 CPU’s in one form or another.

MacrosNCG CAM allows the user to record operations to a macro; that macro can then be used to automate themachining of a similar part. This is particularly useful when using the spark gap variable.

Compatibility
NCG CAM offers a number of different translators allowing different model formats to be opened. Standard
within the software are, IGES, VDA-fs, STL, RAW and CLD.
Translators for PARASOLIDTM, SolidWorksTM, Pro/ENGINEERTM / CreoTM, STEP, CATIATM versions 4 & 5
are additional options. IGES, SolidWorksTM and Pro/ENGINEERTM / CreoTM have model associativity.

Model Associativity
The NCG CAM model associativity can detect if the IGES, SolidWorksTM or Pro/ENGINEERTM / CreoTM,
Step, VDA-fs, Parasolid part has been changed. The user is informed and has the option to automaticallyrecalculate the toolpaths to the new model.

System Requirements
Operating system compatibility: Windows VistaTM and Windows 7TM Windows 8TM Windows 10TM on a 64-bit
platform, 2GB RAM (minimum).

Post-processors
Internal macro post processors are included for Heidenhain and ISO formats, these are user configurablefrom within NCG CAM. There is also a standard APT output for the G-PostTM processor and G-Post postprocessors are available.
Post-processors for most 3-axis and 5-axis CNC machine tools are available. These too can be configured
from a user-interface.

Training
Just 1 day of training is all that is required to get a user able to machine a real part (3-axis).
An additional day is recommended to cover the 5-axis module, finer details and less used operations.
