This means the CAD/CAM system can program virtually all existing CNC machines. Further, users can convert the Mazatrol language to edit-free G-code, create drawings. GeoPath, Mill module, Lathe module, EDM module, Fabrication CAM. Experienced: 'Since installing MazaCAM, I have found that down-time on our.

How do I schedule a MazaCAM demo?

How do I schedule a MazaCAM demo?

To schedule a MazaCAM demo call 408.249.1529 or 888.322.3226.

Do I need to purchase a CAD/CAM system in addition to MazaCAM?

No, unlike other off-line programming packages for Mazatrol, the full MazaCAM system is a complete CAD/CAM system. It has all the features one needs to draw or edit CAD files and to assign the tooling and generate Mazatrol and G-code programs.

If I have different Mazatrol control types on my shop floor, do I need to buy separate modules of MazaCAM for my different control types?

MazaCAM comes standard supporting the broad line of Mazak controls: T1, T2, M2, T3, T32, M32, T+, M+, Fusion-640M, Fusion-640T, Fusion-640MT, Fusion-640M-Pro, MT-Pro, Matrix, Smart and the Smooth control. So you are set with MazaCAM to support all your controls, and you do not get charged per control type (call for details on this).

Does MazaCAM provide an off-line Mazatrol editor where I can write my programs off-line?

Yes, MazaCAM does provide the user with an off-line Mazatrol Editor. This editor can be used to either create a program from scratch, or to load in existing programs to be edited. The Editor provides one with the standard Mazatrol set of commands. The Mazatrol appears similar to that on the Mazatrol control, but as the Mazatrol Editor is Windows® based, it takes full advantage of Windows® features such as pop-up menus and copy-and-paste capabilities. It also gives the user the ability to plot the shape of the part he is programming. For more information please see our Mazatrol Editor page.

What versions of Windows® can MazaCAM run under?

MazaCAM runs under Windows® XP, Windows® Vista, and Windows® 7, Windows® 8, 8.1, and Windows® 10.

*Windows® 10 is not recommended.

Will MazaCAM run on my network?

MazaCAM runs on a standard Windows® network. If you have a different network please give us a call at (408) 249-1529.

Will MazaCAM work with my DNC system?

Different DNC systems have different ways of supporting the Mazatrol protocol, and the communications thereof. MazaCAM will work with all major DNC systems. It can automatically ‘sense’ which format you are trying to read in (such as Predator or Greco Systems) and will automatically import that file.

Will MazaCAM read existing Mazatrol programs, even if they were saved in other formats?

Yes, MazaCAM reads existing Mazatrol programs including Mazak's Microdisk format (via the serial port), the Fusion Floppy Disk format as well as Mazatrol programs saved in most other software formats saved in Mazatrol binary format, such as Griffo, Shoplink, etc.

Does MazaCAM support my Mazak’s probing (MMS)?

Yes, MazaCAM supports your Mazak’s probes.

Does MazaCAM support my C and Y-axis lathes, such as my Integrex?

Yes, MazaCAM is capable of handling lathes with a C and/or Y-axis (live tooling). MazaCAM also supports dual-spindle and sub-spindle lathes, and even can transfer workpieces between spindles.

Why is MazaCAM sometimes referred to as GeoPath CAD/CAM?

Sometimes MazaCAM gets referred to as GeoPath, or SolutionWare. The company that developed MazaCAM is called SolutionWare Corporation. SolutionWare’s main product is the GeoPath CAD/CAM system. We at SolutionWare developed a set of advanced Mazatrol utilities that plug straight into our GeoPath CAD/CAM system, giving the user a complete CAD/CAM system that is also capable of handling Mazatrol. GeoPath CAD/CAM with the Mazatrol utilities plugged into it is called MazaCAM.

Does MazaCAM come with post-processors? Will it work with all my CNC machines?

For Mazaks with Mazatrol: When one has different Mazaks with different controls, MazaCAM CAD/CAM automatically outputs Mazatrol to all your controls available at the time of your purchase (see all the Mazatrol controls that we support) for no extra charge. For EIA/ISO/G-Code output: EIA/ISO/G-Code output requires post-processors for a fee. G-Code generated by MazaCAM is post-processed (when configured correctly) to output edit-free code for virtually any standard CNC control: (Including, but not limited to: Fanuc, Fadal, Yasnac, Haas, Okuma, Anilam, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Prototrak, Mazak EIA/ISO, Heidenhain, Dynapath, Acramatic, Bandit, Bridgeport, etc.).

Can MazaCAM take in CAD files from other systems, such as Pro-Engineer, Unigraphics, AutoCAD, Solid Works and Catia?

Many companies that use MazaCAM run into situations where they work with an Engineering Department, or have customers that use other systems such as Pro-E. Without MazaCAM you need to get a drawing and program the part on the control, but MazaCAM is capable of directly importing IGES, DXF, and STEP files, output by virtually any other system. So in this case, instead of programming the part of a drawing, a CAD file can be imported into MazaCAM and all that needs to be done is assign the cutter information, and one can go straight to either Mazatrol or G-code. The amount of time and money saved, by this simple technique alone, more than justifies the cost of MazaCAM.

When I purchase MazaCAM, what do I do about training?

When you purchase MazaCAM, training classes can be attended free of charge at our facility on San Jose, CA, as long as your company is under a valid service agreement. Training can be attended by those employees of SolutionWare customers that will be using the MazaCAM system. Training is also provided through local representatives, but call for pricing and to find out where the SolutionWare software representative nearest you is located.

Does MazaCAM have an annual service agreement?

The service agreement covers issues such as tech support, training, free upgrades and updates, etc. Also, when purchasing MazaCAM you will be automatically covered by a 90-day service agreement.

With MazaCAM, can I machine splines using Mazatrol?

When one has to work with splines, for instance from an IGES file, Mazatrol itself is not capable of machining a spline, however MazaCAM has a feature that it can simplify a spline called ‘Geometry Simplication’. Geometry Simplification automatically converts splines to lines and arcs. Now you can machine this using Mazatrol, additionally it also significantly reduces program length when dealing with G-code programs.

To make your job even easier and help you get your production done faster, a large amount of new enhancements and improvements went into the software to give users a more efficient MazaCAM package.

Some of the new features are:

MazaCAM Supports the broad line of Mazak controls from the first T1 to modern machines such as Nexus, Integrex, and e-machine (including T1, T2, M2, T3, T32, M32, T+, M+, Fusion-640M, Fusion-640T, Fusion-640MT, Fusion-640MT-Pro, M-Pro, Matrix, Smart and the Smooth control), call for details.
Enhance Geopath CAD/CAM to allow easier programming of the Integrex from a CAD file, including B-Axis cuts.
Enhance MazaCAM Editor to allow Tool-Data Editing for T32, T-Plus, 640T and 640MT
Users can now convert their Mazatrol programs with C and Y-Axis cuts directly to Geopath.
MazaCAM Editor now supports AUTOSET for Mill feeds and speeds. Users can now experience the automatic setting of the feeds and speeds for their M-Plus and Fusion 640M controls on the MazaCAM Editor.
More Multi-tasking capabilities: users can now open multiple screens of the MazaCAM Editor simultaneously to compare programs or even copy from one program to another.
Sequence of actions to accomplish your task are done with one button click. Users can now convert their Mazatrol programs to G-Code with 3 to 4 clicks.
