FastCAM

FastCAM is a computer-aided design (CAD) software designed for metal fabricators looking for a fast and easy way to create precise cutting patterns.

Developed by PIERCE-FastCAM 2000 OEM, FastCAM offers a range of features that help users optimize their cutting processes. It allows users to import and convert drawings from different formats, such as DXF, DWG, and HPGL, into cutting paths. This feature enables metal fabricators to streamline their design process and minimize the risk of errors.

In addition to importing designs, FastCAM also includes a number of tools that enable users to create custom designs from scratch. The software has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to navigate through different panels and menus.

• One of the standout features of FastCAM is its powerful nesting algorithm. This algorithm automatically arranges parts on the sheet to minimize waste and optimize the material usage.
• Another key feature is its compatibility with various CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines. The software can generate G-code compatible with CNC machines from different manufacturers.

FastCAM is suitable for a wide range of industries that require precise cutting, such as shipbuilding, engineering, automotive, and construction. It is a reliable software that helps metal fabricators avoid costly mistakes and streamline their production processes.
