Master Every Axis with BobCAD-CAM
Power up your 4 & 5 axis machining with cutting-edge CAD-CAM software tailored for multiaxis professionals. From adaptive roughing to dynamic tool axis control, BobCAD-CAM delivers the speed, accuracy, and flexibility you need to dominate complex geometries.
Trusted by automotive, aerospace, mold & die, and more.
Why Multiaxis Shops Switch to BobCAD-CAM
Advanced Roughing: Trochoidal, constant-engagement cutting to full-tool depth
- Customers cut roughing from 2 hrs to 30 min—up to 70 % faster
Equidistant Feed-Rate Control: Auto-decelerate before corners, accelerate after
- 30 – 50 % overall cycle-time reduction
Premium Surface Toolpaths: Surface-based (not mesh) for mirror-finish accuracy
- Essential for shops that sell on quality
Tool-Axis Control Wizard: Dial in tilt/lead/lag for perfect finish on free-forms
- Reduce hand-finishing to near-zero
3 + 2 Indexing & Trimming: Semi-simultaneous repositioning & part trimming
- One-setup machining; fewer fixtures needed
See It in Action
Affordable. Scalable. Powerful.
We’re the only CAD-CAM software provider offering full Adaptive Roughing in 4 & 5 axis. Our wizard-driven workflows make programming faster and easier than ever. With support for multi-core processing, advanced simulation, and unbeatable value—you get big software performance without the big software price.
Powering CNC Success in Any Industry
BobCAD-CAM Multiaxis software is trusted by professionals in:
-
Automotive (CNC porting, combustion chambers)
-
Aerospace (turbine blades, impellers)
-
Mold & Die (undercutting, complex curves)
-
Racing (engine part milling, high-speed finishing)
Zero-Crash Confidence: Digital-Twin Simulation & Collision Avoidance
When a spindle swap can cost five figures, you can’t afford guess-and-check programming. BobCAD-CAM’s full-machine simulation creates a kinematic “digital twin” of your 4- or 5-axis setup—tool, holder, rotary tables, and fixtures included—so you see exactly what will happen before you cut a single chip.
Key Capabilities
-
Real-Time Gouge & Near-Miss Alerts – flags collisions between tool/holder, stock, and machine components while you scrub the timeline or run at 100 % speed
-
Automatic Safe-Zone Retracts – software inserts optimized retract moves to dodge obstacles without over-travelling your axes
-
Stock-Remaining Visualization – color-maps leftover material so you know where to send the next finishing pass
-
NC Code Back-Plotting – verify the post-processed G code (not just internal toolpaths) for true “what-you-see-is-what-you-machine” accuracy
-
Huge Post-Processor Library – 15 000+ ready-to-run posts plus a configurable Post Editor for Haas, Mazak, DMG MORI, Hermle, and more
Avoid 5-Axis Crash Costs with Simulation
| Typical 5-Axis Crash Expense | Average Cost | Eliminated with BobCAD-CAM? |
|---|---|---|
| Solid-carbide bull-nose tool & holder | $450 – $1 200 | ✔ |
| Spindle rebuild or replacement | $5 000 – $10 000 | ✔ |
| Scrapped titanium billet | ≈ $2 800 | ✔ |
| Unplanned downtime (4 hrs @ $150/hr) | ≈ $600 | ✔ |
