A Focus on Speed and Efficiency
Mastercam X4 is here with a new suite of CAD/CAM tools focused on delivering speed and efficiency for your machining jobs.
Multiple Groove Chain
The new Multiple chains option makes programming complex groves containing multiple pieces of geometry much easier by programming all selected grooves at once.
Other Groove Toolpath Enhancements
- A corner dwell has been added to the Groove finish parameters page. The dwell will be engaged at the intersection of wall/corner geometry to a flat bottom groove.
- You can now set a feed rate specifically for the first plunge move.
- New feed and speed options for finish passes output a separate feed rate and spindle speed for the finish groove passes.
Tool Inspection Position
Mastercam X4 now provides a way for you to inspect your tool based on conditions you set. The options available are between grooves, after first plunge, after each depth cut, and after a specified number of plunges.
Turn Profile 
Mastercam X4 includes a new function for generating a turned profile from a solid, immediately delivering a precise profile of even the most complex and non-uniform parts.
