Mastercam is buying postability

The new realtime bead simulation is very nice, looking forward to the 2024 realease! But the game changer will be bead simulation inside of machine sim. The part I am working on now for a customer has over 20 additive operations all with different stock to leave amounts to ensure that bead overlap is maintained as much as possible throughout a constantly changing cross section. Having the ability to collision check back to the deposited material as well as a real time stock update during machine simulation will be the ticket. Creating models to represent deposition is extremely time consuming for machining stock when getting in to complex parts.

I too have seen the bead simulation from Moduleworks, not in a Mastercam environment however. It seems like such an easy fix and/or additional cost to the user for Moduleworks to offer it to Mastercam users. Mastercam/Aplus is the absolute best solution we have seen for Hybrid applications.

Were ready to go on 2024, should be out very soon!!

I think you will be very impressed, most notable enhancements are the improved multi-axis and outline 5AX toolpaths & the improved AM Vision(Additive Simulation)
