Go directly from CAD design to CAM programming to CNC milling machine, with one integrated workflow. Autodesk HSM software provides CAD/CAM tools for Inventor.
CAD/CAM integration and performance
AnyCAD in Inventor
Design changes in the source CAD system get automatically updated downstream in drawings and toolpaths.
Adaptive clearing
Reduce roughing time by a factor of 4 or more compared to conventional roughing, and increase tool life. (video: 5:15 min.)
CAD/CAM integration
Use the familiar tools and user interface in Inventor or SOLIDWORKS software.
Faster toolpath calculation time
Multiprocessor/multicore CPU support reduces toolpath calculation times, especially on large or complex designs.
Machining formats
3-axis milling and 3+2 positioning
Select a work plane, and HSM software finds the most efficient rotations to orient the part.
5-axis and multiaxis operations
Advanced simultaneous 5-axis features for machining complex models include multiaxis contouring, 3D toolpath tilting, and more.
Turning
Improve productivity with traditional turning, facing, grooving, and boring functions.
Mill turn
HSM supports functionality for mill turn applications.
Advanced CNC functionality
Probing
Interface your CAM programming with electronic probes on CNC machines to quickly set and verify part locations.
Tool holder avoidance
Automatically avoid collisions between your part and tool holders during CNC calculations.
Slope machining
Control cutter engagement by using slope angles to minimize tool deflection and improve finish.
Engraving shapes and text
Carve shapes or text into parts, using a chamfer tool.
Simulation and verification tools
Stock and toolpath simulation
See stock being removed, and check for shaft and clamp/fixture collisions.
CNC output edit
Perform common text edits to NC program files.
Advanced analysis tools
Measure distances or dynamically view vital information, such as feed/speed and estimated machining time.
What customers say
Great product, had a problem initially downloading, emailed customer services, they responded within two hours giving me a detailed work list, it worked, I now have office 2010 and I am thrilled with it. I will certainly use this software store in the future. Thanks Guys.
I had some trouble downloading the software myself but the customer support team helped promptly and solved all my issues to the highest level of satisfaction. Thanks.
The rating for Customer Support doesn't do the guys justice! I had a niggling problem with the installation and they supported me through the entire process. In the end they did a remote install - problem fixed! Very happy with the outstanding service they provided. Thanks again guys.
I was delighted to find InDesign at such a great price and equally as pleased at how quickly I could download it and use it. It's been with me 3 days and I've already designed a brochure! Your site has a very prominent bookmark on my browser.
I appreciate the help the support team provided with the installation on my computer. The tech spent well over three hours trying to get the product installed and the licensing handled. We went through numerous restarts and they always responded promptly after I sent a password for the remote access to my computer. I will highly recommend your company to others for software purchase. Thanks again.
I thank you for all the help and patience that you have given me and I do feel that I have been a bit of a nuisance with my many requests for help. All the team have been so helpful and polite that I will certainly buy any future software that I require from you. Also your rapid response to requests is second to none and I applaud you for it.
Although I had a problem with the download, the support team helped me immediately and the problem was solved. Thank you, I am a satisfied customer.
