Efficient Wireframe Geometry
Mastercam’s streamlined CAD engine makes design work easier than ever before. Each piece of geometry you create is live, letting you quickly modify it until it’s exactly what you want. Further, with traditional functions consolidated into a few simple clicks, Mastercam simplifies the creation of even the most complex parts.
- Multiple point and line creation techniques.
- Efficient arc, circle, and fillet functions, including filleting at every corner in a chain of entities.
- Create splines on surfaces using a variety of functions including surface projections, surface intersections, edge curves, slicing curves, and parting lines.
- Create pre-filleted shapes to save time.
- Change widths, styles, and colors globally or for a single entity.
- Quickly modify parameters such as line length and arc radius after creation.
- Fillet or chamfer corners easily.
- Extend lines, arcs, and splines.
- Quickly translate, mirror, and scale (uniformly or with separate factors in X, Y, and Z).
- Offset entities by a given distance.
- Associative dimensions update as you change your model.
- Extensive CAD editing tools, including unlimited Undo/Redo.
- User-definable drafting grid simplifies detailed construction.
- Customizable AutoCursor™ snaps to commonly used construction points.
- Automatic parting line calculation for mold making.
- Analyze single points, between points, angles, and entire entities.
- Simplified and improved work coordinate system makes it easy to work on a model without having to move it in 3D space. Your new planes and origins are easily transferred to your G-code.
- Save a description with your part for record keeping.
- View thumbnail images of parts for easier browsing and loading.
