Manufacturing has changed.
So should your CAD/CAM software.

2D and 2.5D Machining

Quickly set up jobs and create 2D and 2.5D toolpaths to drive CNC routers, mills, water jet cutters, laser cutters, and more. Integrated CAD simplifies design revisions, reduces programming times and helps avoid mistakes.

3-axis Machining

Access a range of powerful 3-axis machining strategies to rapidly create high-quality NC code to rough and finish your 3D parts. Intuitive workflows make it simple to program individual features or entire parts. Some of these capabilities require a subscription to Fusion 360 and the Machining Extension.

Multi-axis Positional Machining

Unleash your shop's multi-axis capabilities with 3+1 and 3+2 (positional) machining. Machine parts with fewer setups, using shorter, more rigid cutting tools, for improved part accuracy and faster cycle times. Some of these capabilities require a subscription to Fusion 360 and the Machining Extension.

4 & 5-axis Simultaneous Machining

Use specialized 4- and 5-axis toolpaths to achieve superior surface finish. Additional tool axis controls and automatic collision avoidance help you achieve safe, smooth and predictable machine motion. Access to this functionality requires a subscription to Fusion 360 and the Machining Extension.

Turning

Program 2D turned parts using a suite of dedicated turning strategies. Verify your turning toolpaths with stock simulation to identify errors or collisions with the model, stock, tools, and workholding.
