Alphacam-designer-2020
is a specialized direct modelling CAD solution designed by Hexagon to bridge the gap between design and manufacturing. It is primarily used to prepare geometry for machining by repairing, modifying, or simplifying solid and surface models before they enter the CAM environment. Core Functionality
To run ALPHACAM Designer 2020 effectively, the following hardware is recommended by Hexagon : ALPHACAM System Requirements - Hexagon alphacam-designer-2020
: Introduced conditional "if/else" structures, allowing complex rules to be defined that can affect multiple variables or layers simultaneously. System Requirements (Minimum) is a specialized direct modelling CAD solution designed
: Allows users to select and machine planar or cylindrical solid faces directly without extracting geometry or manually creating workplanes. System Requirements (Minimum) : Allows users to select
: Features a simulation session powered by the same engine as the post-processor, ensuring a direct correlation between NC code (XYZ/ABC data) and the visual simulation.
: Supports importing DXF and DWG files to transform 2D profiles into 3D models through automated sketch profile regions. Key Features in the 2020 Release
: Quickly removes markings like laser engravings or electrode markers that are unnecessary for the CAM process but present in the original CAD data.
