AlphaCAM Profiling  
AlphaCAM Profiling 5 Axis

Laser, flame, and water jet profiling operations are all catered for in the AlphaCAM Profiling and AlphaCAM Profiling 5 Axis modules. The 5 Axis module provides for the cutting of complex 3D components.



AlphaCAM has modules for all sheet profiling operations. Internal Lead-In/Out moves are automatically adjusted to ensure that part profiles are not damaged.

Automatic and Manual nesting of geometries or toolpaths (including Lead-In/Out moves) on multiple sheets of any shape is fast and accurate for maximum sheet utilisation.

The area, weight and cost of parts and scrap are calculated automatically.
