Supercharge machine uptime overnight
CAM Assist can be set up same-day and saves the typical workshop >1000 hours a year
Win more business with AI cycle times
Process >4x more quotes with cycle times estimates from an AI that understands your specific toolsets and machines
Get chips flying faster with one-click fixtures
Generate custom soft jaw designs in seconds, cutting 40 minutes from CAD to first cut on average and freeing up your programmers to make more parts
Avoid programming bottlenecks with AI CAM
Take your CAM programmers to 80% program completion at the click of a button, multiplying their productivity
Increase RFT with AI cutting parameters
Eliminate scrap caused by unreliable feeds & speeds with AI generated cutting parameters, tailored for every unique operation, tool and machine combination
Scale up production without scaling headcount
Difficulty hiring skilled labour is the #1 reported pain point in machine shops worldwide, and this is getting worse every year
Win more contracts with AI cycle time estimation
Estimation is the hardest task to delegate in a machine shop, often falling to the owner. CAM assist reduces this burden and has been measured to >4x estimation output.
Never let unfinished CAM block a machine again
CAM Assist has been measured to reduce time from CAD to component by 7x on average, allowing programmers to make up to 7x more programs per day.
Multiply the productivity of your existing team
Difficulty hiring skilled employees is the #1 reported blocker to growth by machine shop owners. CAM Assist raises the output of your existing machinists.

FAQs
CAM Assist is a cloud-based software solution for CAM programming 3-axis prismatic parts - currently available as an add-on to users on macOS or Windows with a Fusion 360 license. The CAM software can instantly produce machining strategies and support reduction in CAM programming time, enable resource efficiency and support new CAD/CAM users with onboarding.
CAM Assist analyses your preferred tool library and the geometrical data of the part you’re trying to CAM. It uses deep tech computational techniques to generate the best possible outcome based upon the geometry of the part and your tool library - this can run into the thousands, if not millions of combinations. It produces a well-organised sequence that allows you to edit the result further if required. CAM Assist is the culmination of 8 years of testing, and refining the technology used within CloudNC’s factory in the UK.
Yes!! The software is simple and easy to use making it the perfect tool to help junior programmers, those new to a CAM package and those in the education sector onboard faster. If you’re unfamiliar with Fusion 360, we make this process easy; simply select your toolkit, your part and CAM Assist can do the rest - helping you learn while you’re still creating parts.
We encourage you to use it, test your parts and see how much time you can save! We’re confident that you’ll love using it and we hope you can share some of your successes, or suggestions on how we can improve the product please send to camassist@cloudnc.com. We'd also be interested in understanding if there are any other CAM packages you would like to see CAM Assist in next.
CAM Assist is only available in English at launch.
