CloudNC has announced that its CAM Assist solution, which uses artificial intelligence (AI) to generate machining strategies for 3 and 3+2 axis CNC machines, is now available for Mastercam users.
The new upgrade is available as an AI add-on for the Mastercam platform, a CAM software solution, and means more machinists globally can use CAM Assist.
CloudNC is making the software available to North American manufacturing software resellers—including Shopware, CAD/CAM CONSULTING SERVICES (CCCS) and In-House Solutions.
CAM Assist uses advanced computer science techniques and AI to generate intuitive machining strategies in minutes or seconds, depending on complexity, which could take CNC machine programmers hours or days to manually create.
CloudNC also recently announced the release of a new CAM Assist feature, Cutting Parameters AI, that automatically generates appropriate physics-based feeds and speeds for virtually any CNC machining scenario, in moments, resulting in productivity gains, and this feature is also available in Mastercam.
CAM Assist is available for Mastercam today, as well as other CAM packages, via cloudnc.com and via selected resellers.

CAM Assist from CloudNC integrates with your CAM package to automate programming, increase spindle uptime and grow your business. With same day set-up, for workshops around the world.
