Programming bottlenecks, scrap and machine downtime cost CNC shops time and money every day — whether you’re handling frequent design changes, juggling multiple setups or pushing machines to run more complex parts. In this webinar, you’ll learn practical CAM techniques for programming CNC parts faster, reducing setup time and avoiding costly shop-floor issues, using workflows built for real-world manufacturing environments.
Rather than a high-level product overview, this session focuses on how CAM programmers and shop teams actually work. You’ll see how Fusion for Manufacturing connects design, CAM programming and simulation in a single platform, making it easier to manage change, program complex parts with confidence and validate toolpaths before they ever reach the machine.
During this webinar, you will learn how to:
- Automatically update CAM toolpaths when CAD geometry changes while preserving machining intent
- Apply advanced roughing and finishing strategies — including adaptive clearing, steep and shallow, and high-efficiency machining — to reduce cycle time and improve tool life
- Program 3+2 and full five-axis milling operations to improve tool access, reduce setups and handle complex geometries
- Verify toolpaths using stock, holder and machine simulation to prevent collisions, scrap and rework
Who should attend:
- CNC job shops managing high-mix, frequently-changing work
- Shops running multiple machines, controls and setups that need consistent, repeatable programming
- CNC programmers responsible for complex parts, tight tolerances and short lead times
- Shops looking to reduce programming time and setup complexity without adding more software
- Teams planning to expand into multi-axis or five-axis machining and want more confidence at the machine
By the end of this webinar, you’ll walk away with practical CAM workflows you can apply immediately to program faster, reduce setups and keep machines cutting — so your shop can take on more work with confidence and consistency.
