I will do expert 4, 5 axis cnc programming cam toolpaths using powershape and powermill


About this gig
High End 3, 4 and 5 Axis CNC Programming, PowerMill and PowerShape Expert
Are you looking for industrial grade CNC programming for complex parts? I specialize in creating high precision toolpaths using Autodesk PowerMill and PowerShape, ensuring maximum efficiency and safety for your machining process.
From decorative wood carvings to complex industrial molds, I provide G code that is optimized for your specific machine kinematics.
What I Offer:
- 3 Axis Milling: High speed clearing, finishing, and optimized 3D toolpaths.
- 4 Axis & 5 Axis Simultaneous: Expert handling of complex geometries, blades, and impellers.
- PowerShape Modeling: Preparation of surfaces, closing holes, and creating electrode designs or mold boundaries.
- Toolpath Optimization: Reduced cycle times and improved surface finish.
How We Will Work:
- Analysis: I study your 3D model STEP, STL, IGES and your machine requirements.
- Strategy: I develop the most efficient machining strategy in PowerMill.
- Simulation: I verify the toolpaths against collisions using your machine model or generic kinematics.
- Delivery: You receive the G code

FAQ
1. Which software do you use for programming?
I use Autodesk PowerMill for advanced CAM programming and PowerShape for surface preparation and modeling. These are industry leading tools for complex 3, 4, and 5 axis machining, ensuring the highest precision and toolpath quality.
2. Can you provide G code for my specific CNC machine?
Yes. To generate a compatible G code, I will need your Post processor file. If you don't have one, please provide the controller type e.g., Fanuc, Heidenhain, Siemens, Mach3, Haas. I can use standard post processors, but a "dry run" without material is always recommended in such cases.
3. How do you ensure there are no collisions?
Safety is my priority. I perform a full Toolpath Verification in PowerMill to check for collisions between the tool, holder, and the part. If you provide your Machine Tool model (.mtd), I can also perform a full machine level simulation to ensure the spindle and table move safely within their limits
4. What files do I need to provide?
For the best results, please provide your 3D model in STEP, IGES, or STL format. Additionally, I need a list of available tools (diameters, lengths, and types) and information about your machine's setup (work offset or origin point).
5. Can you prepare or fix my 3D model?
Yes, I use PowerShape to fix "broken" surfaces, close holes for finishing operations, or create auxiliary geometry like boundaries or lead-in surfaces. If your model needs significant design changes, please contact me first for a custom quote.
6. Do you support 5 axis simultaneous machining?
Absolutely. I specialize in complex Simultaneous 5 axis strategies, including flowline finishing, blade or impeller machining, and collision avoidant tilting. I can also program in 3+2 Positional mode if your machine or project requires it.
7. What materials can you program for?
I have experience programming for a wide range of materials, including wood (complex 3D carving), plastics (polycarbonate, acrylic), aluminum, and hard metals (steel, titanium). I will adjust the feeds and speeds based on your specific material and machine capabilities.
