Easy Threading and Grooving
Common threading and grooving techniques combine with Mastercam’s easy operation and additional strategies to give you fast and precise results.
- Click and drag a machining start point anywhere on your model.
- Grooving with multiple depth cuts and pecking.
- Groove from a point or multiple points without creating geometry.
- Easily define groove depth, width, wall angles, corner radius, and chamfer.
- Skip over a groove or cavity when roughing or finishing without creating additional geometry.
- Step and stepless grooving.
- Many additional grooving options including zigzag rough grooving, angular grooving, and face grooving.
- Complete threading with multiple starts, diameter calculation, and thread tables.
- Chuck, part, steady rest, and tailstock detection.
- Open and directly machine a solid model.
- Mastercam's Quick Toolpaths let you program parts completely with just a few simple clicks.
