Adaptive SC
This high-speed machining cycle is specifically designed for roughing to substantially decrease cycle times and extend tool life. Its technology automatically regulates chip loads and lateral cutting forces while maintaining the cutter engagement angle and machine axes acceleration within optimal ranges.
With Adaptive SC, the machine can make deeper cuts at higher feedrates, which are also automatically optimized throughout the toolpath for maximum efficiency. In comparison to traditional machining methods, Adaptive SC provides the following benefits:
70%
reduction in cycle time
500%
increase in tool life

SprutCAM X is a high-end CAD/CAM platform. Its design is centered around machine-aware toolpath calculation. However, proficiency in proper machine operation is essential. Please note that you use the software at your own risk and assume full responsibility for any potential equipment damage. Check EULA page for more information.
In essence, machine-aware toolpath calculation involves considering machine kinematics and limitations when calculating toolpaths. This ensures collision-free toolpath calculation and reliable simulation, leading to an improved user experience and significantly better time performance compared to traditional CAM workflows. This key technology places SprutCAM X in the high-end CAM category.
