Filou NC – CAM Software

The most important capability characteristics of Filou-NC

…directly to KinetiC-NC without any diversions

Transfer your finished programmes directly to KinetiC-NC without diversions. Or save your file including geometry and NC-Code as a project.

Optimising drill paths

Do you drill a lot? leave the work up to FILOU-NC. If you wish borings can be registered according to size, arranged and drilled automatically

Deep drilling, pockets, free-hand-milling, circle-pockets…

…milling of text, contours and more can be done automatically with FILOU.

Or mill a circle pocket or a dowel with a helix milling path.

Radius control during milling operations is automatically…

Draw your working pieces in a final dimension not considering how large your drill-bit will be later. FILOU-NC calculates the path-correction automatically for each drill-bit used.

If you wish the tool-administration in FILOU-NC also calculates the correct milling speed and rotation moment of the spindle.

Geometry

Import your geometry (AutoCAD-DXF, HPGL, MegaCAD-CDL, G-Code).
Using particular functions, you correct the imported geometry or develop a new one with CAD functions supplied.

CAM

You simply generate your NC-program from the geometry. Contours, pockets, circle-pockets, milling of text, freehand-milling, drilling with path-optimisation, and if you wish, machine-specific cycles. In addition, there are tool-administration with step-data-calculation option.

CNC-Editor

A modern CNC-Editor with built-in work-program can process almost all large CNC-files. Beside conventional commands, there are CNC-specific functions. The built-in work-program makes even the processing of complex CNC-files a mere child’s play.

Simulate your programmes in 3D

When the program is completed, you can simulate and check the CNC-code immediately. This is faster than simulating by test-run on the machine without any material.

3D simulation of 3D objects 

You can simulate pre-existing CNC programs too. For example 3D programs with a maximum of three shareable axles (XYZ) from DeskProto.
