This is the way to go whether you need to program a hole or build a complex program with 60 tools. They didn’t do anymore that EZ-CAM did for us and had a VERY big learning curve, whereas I can take a newbie and have them programming in a day with EZ-CAM. We were talked into many other EXPENSIVE software packages during the years, but unfortunately, they now sit “collecting dust”. I have not needed to use anything but EZ-CAM for any programming, whether it is simple hole work, 3D surfing, indexing, or 4 axis simultaneous machining.
I use the PRO version because I do a lot of 3D milling and surfing. We use it for turning and milling and whichever one you program, this is the way to go.
Then I began programming offline when I began at Machining Concepts using EZ-CAM and have not looked back since. I was one who programmed at the machine control whichever it was where I used to work, and I can say I thought I was good at it. Here at Machining Concepts, we have used EZ-CAM since our beginning in 1995.
