Product
Advanced CAD/CAM for combined laser/punching and plasma/drilling machines—from multi-technology programming and optimized nesting to machine-ready NC programs.
Almacam Combi is a specialized CAD/CAM solution for programming combined laser/punching and plasma/drilling machines. It manages the specific requirements of each technology throughout the programming process, including tooling, cutting conditions, nesting, machining sequences, tool trajectories, part evacuation and NC program generation.
Designed for manufacturers processing numerous and varied parts, Almacam Combi combines powerful automation with advanced nesting and machine-specific programming. It supports both sheet metal combination machines and heavy-plate processing systems, helping manufacturers coordinate multiple operations on a single machine while improving material utilization and production efficiency.
Key features
Program multiple manufacturing technologies on a single machine, including laser cutting with punching or plasma cutting with drilling. Manage tool allocation, cutting conditions and process-specific requirements according to the machine configuration.
Optimize material utilization while considering clamps, machine work areas and processing requirements. Parts can be nested under or around clamps, with support for common cutting of identical and non-identical parts.
Automatically optimize machining sequences and tool movements across different processes. Coordinate cutting, punching or drilling operations while preventing collisions between the processing head and already-cut parts.
Manage different part evacuation systems together with loading and unloading peripherals. Almacam can automate the programming workflow from part preparation and nesting through sequence optimization and NC program generation.
