About High Speed Milling
High Speed Milling or HSM is a machining method that includes high speed rates, high spindle speeds, and specific tools. HSM from ModuleWorks provides the following sequences:
HSM Rough
HSM Rest Rough
HSM Finish
HSM Rest Finish
Auto Deburring
HSM 5 Axis Rough
HSM 5 Axis Rest Rough
Geodesic 5 Axis Finish
Wall 5 Axis Finish
Floor 5 Axis Finish
The following are some of the benefits of HSM Milling:
Reduction of cutting forces
Good surface finish
Accurate parts
Fast material removal
You get better results while simulating material removal if you created HSM Milling sequences.
In a session, you must add the High Speed Milling or High Speed Milling Advanced license to make the High Speed Milling group and the corresponding sequences available on the Mill tab, without a need to end the current session. With these licenses, the existing high speed milling steps also become available in the model tree. Without these licenses, the High Speed Milling group remains unavailable.
