Schott Systeme Enhances CAM Feature Recognition with Pictures by PC

By DE Editors

German CAD/CAM developer Schott Systeme has announced the launch of an online video demonstration to highlight the their latest freeform feature recognition tools in Pictures by PC.

By combining enhanced recognition tools with the software’s latest surface modeling capabilities, users are able to prepare models for machining faster, according to the company. Complex features can be automatically covered using the software’s surfacing functionality.

Suited to both 3-axis and 5-axis machining, the recognition tools help extract complex machining features. Helping to identify areas that require rest machining, actual radius surfaces within a given size range are automatically identified and extracted for re-machining. Similar tools also enable the selection of chained radius faces so entire freeform filleted features can be chosen in a single click.
