JDSoft SurfMill

Precision CAD/CAM Software for 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis Machining

Get a high-precision machine tool is the first step to process good-quality workpiece. But how to avoid unpredictable dangers especially in complicated 5-axis machining, how to get high-quality products, how to improve machining efficiency to shorten downtime. These are what Jingdiao CAD/CAM software, SurfMill can help you with.SurfMill is universal CAD/CAM software based on surface modeling. It has comprehensive functions that are capable of providing you more reliable, more qualified, and more continuous processing strategy.

High-quality Products by Using Specialized Module in SurfMill

SurfMill plays an important role in obtaining high-quality processing result as some problems can only be optimized and solved in software, such as machining path in higher accuracy, using specified direction of tools to cut, and some functions aiming for specialized industries.

Continuous Processing with On-machine Measurement Functions in SurfMill

In SurfMill, you can design on-machine measurement strategy just like programming cutting path, as there are not only functions for creating and editing probing path based on features, but also capable of generating measurement coordinate according to some simple instructions. Data that’s collected in machine tools can be imported into SurfMill to analyze. Thus you can reduce or even eliminate manual participant in certain links of processing, such as workpiece alignment, error analysis.

FEATURES

Program measurement path based on features Calculate dimensional accuracy Generate measurement coordinate Measurement results analysis

Select the objects you’d like to measure and you’ll get a measurement path.

SurfMill has functions to calculate distance, angle, and dimensional accuracy according to the features you measure.

You don’t need to know how to calculate a measurement coordinate and write the corresponding G code, SurfMill offers you several functions. You only need to choose the features to get a right coordinate.

Measurement results are visible in SurfMill as they will be displayed in colored points. This function is also available in JD50 CNC system.
