In PowerMill the main advantage in machining 5th axis, a skill that software has for saving time in the machining of complex shapes and in a single machine preparation. In PowerMill are two forms of machining 3 and 5 axis, providing strategies for the...
I still don't understand why AutoDesk doesn't offer an all-in-one solution instead making different programs for every problem :)
-It's very flexible for complicated design like tire. -It's having good feature's like collision detection and automatic avoidance applied to tool path. -It's having good flexible user interface.
The downside is that finding solutions is difficult due to the number of users in my area. It lacks the ability to monitor files and specific quantities. Although hyperMILL is slower compared to programs there's room for improvement in terms of reliability...
