Efficient NC Tools and Toolpath Management
![]() |
The actual cutter path is only a portion of what makes a good NC program. The overall toolpath management and controls make each operation as optimized and efficient as possible.
- Full control over all aspects of tool approach and retract.
- Safe zones help ensure safe tool retract in all toolpath types.
- Significantly reduce the size of a program with toolpath filtering.
- Use all your tooling including lollipop, slot, dovetail, tapered, and much more.
- Automatically generate customizable setup sheets.
- Subroutine support.
- User-customizable tool and material libraries automatically calculate feeds and speeds.
- Mastercam's Toolpath Manager stores all your job's operations in one place. Quickly create, edit, and verify your toolpaths, or copy and paste parameters from one operation to another. Use machine groups to organize your operations, and easily copy and paste toolpaths and tool definitions from one machine group to another.
