Product catalog summary
Overview: almaCAM Routing is a CAM solution designed for routing panels made from non-metallic soft materials, such as wood and plastic, in small to medium batch quantities. It supports various manufacturing processes and is independent of any CAD system, allowing it to work with any CAD-designed 3D part.
Key Advantages and Benefits:
  • Geometry Recognition: Automatic machining assignment directly on 3D CAD parts saves time in preparation.
  • Tool Allocation and Nesting: One-click tool allocation and part nesting optimize machining sequencing and NC program generation.
  • High-Performance Nesting: Efficient automatic nesting reduces material waste and calculation time.
  • Machine Compatibility: Supports any type of machining and technological functions of routing machines.
  • Customization: Easy configuration and customization during tool assignment.
Material Savings and Error Reduction:
  • Automatic nesting reduces material loss rates.
  • Automatic recognition of technological characteristics minimizes programming times and error rates.
Optimized Cycle Times:
  • Optimized tool path computation and automated tool order management.
  • Interactive modification of tool orders is possible.
Technological Process Mastery:
  • Automatic or interactive management of pocketing and finish cuts.
  • Management of multi-pass routing and machining on various surfaces.
  • Support for multi-layer machining and unitary part machining with different wedging systems.
Enhanced Quality:
  • Automatic drill re-machining and optimized milling speeds improve part quality.
  • Tool life is increased by accounting for drill wear.
Safety and Handling:
  • Improved safety through part positioning and machining sequence management.
  • Efficient handling with part evacuation lift systems and reduced partial nesting.

Almacam Routing Brochure-1

Product flyer The nesting and programming software for wood and plastic panel routing almaCAM Routing is a CAM solution for panels made out of non-metallic soft materials, especially wood and plastic, in small and medium batch quantities. almaCAM Routing supports various manufacturing processes: routing of nested parts and additional machining on single parts (edge machining), routing of nested parts “top side” and “down side” with additional machining on single parts as required. Totally independent of any CAD system, almaCAM Routing can work from any CAD-designed 3D part thanks to its functions of geometry recognition and automatic machining assignment. Moreover almaCAM Routing supports the technical constraints of a large variety of CNC routers and can generate programs for any of these machines. Alma CAM software 15, rue Georges Perec - F-38400 Saint-Martin-d’Hères Tél. +33 (0)4 76 63 76 20 - [email protected] Advantages and benefits • Geometry recognition and automatic machining assignment directly on 3D CAD parts resulting in time savings when preparing the parts. • One mouse click to perform the tool allocation and part nesting, optimize the machining sequencing including the part evacuation and generate the NC program. • High-performance automatic nesting (in terms of efficiency and calculation time). • Management of nested part production and complementary machining assignment on unitary parts. • Support of any type of machining and of the technological functions of any routing machine. • During machining assignment, identification of available machines with their functional characteristics. • Easy configuration and possible customization
