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

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse varius enim in eros elementum tristique.

What is CAM Assist?

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.

How does CAM Assist output toolpaths?

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.

Will CAM Assist help me use a new CAM package?

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.

How do I get the most out of CAM Assist?

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.

Will CAM Assist work in languages other than English?

CAM Assist is only available in English at launch.
