We have Feature Cam 2015 and I hoped to use this software to program the machine but unfortunately the strategies in Feature Cam don't seem to be appropriate for our machine. This is due to Feature Cam using a C axis (spindle) and X axis combination when machining features and the fact that some of our components are over 4000 lbs in weight, program a circular contour and it sometimes resembles a elipse. I am quite sure this is due to lag/sag between the controller and spindle.
PS, I am getting around the problem by using X,Y axis cutting in a sub program and then rotating C to the next feature and calling the sub program again, all manually programed. This is ok but sort of defeats the object of having a CAM system.
