Mill-turn: milling and turning programming in one project
SprutCAM for mill-turn is a complete multi-tasking CNC programming software for all-in-one machining in a single setup
Mill-turn machining in SprutCAM
Turn-mill toolpath calculation in SprutCAM
Workpiece and the machine scheme are considered during toolpath calculation for every operation
Streamline CNC programming workflow with SprutCAM
SprutCAM calculates lathe toolpaths using the native kinematics of the CNC machine.
What does this mean to the user?
This means that collisions between machine axes as well as the workpiece are handled automatically during toolpath calculation.
You do not need to postprocess the NC code to simulate the real-world result. All machine movements are visible immediately after the toolpath calculation.
CNC programming becomes visual, the workflow is streamlined.
The user can view the workpiece throughout the machining process
SprutCAM can perform turning and milling toolpaths in any order. The workpiece for each subsequent operation is the result of all the previous ones. You can see the current state of the workpiece at every step.
In the screenshot; green color is the part itself and orange is the result of all previous operations. This becomes the workpiece for the next operation.

Hurco
Bedfordshire subcontractor, Anotronic, specialises in machining exotic materials such as titanium alloys, nickel alloys and CPM10V – a 9.75% vanadium tool steel that is four times tougher than D2. To reap the benefits of 5-axis machining in these difficult applications, production director Martin White recently installed a Hurco VM10U vertical machining centre. Solutions reports
For Anotronic, the ability to produce in three operations on the 5-axis machine components that previously needed nine separate set-ups has been invaluable.
Accumulative tolerance errors are all but eliminated and the potential for damaging the part through repeated handling and reclamping is much lower. Scrap rates […]
