ENCY CAM on aerospace aluminum: 5-axis simulation and Plunge Roughing

CUBE CADTECH's CAM specialist showcased ENCY CAM on an aerospace-grade billet-aluminum program: from a raw block of alloy through 5-axis simulation on the trunnion to a finished, polished hub. This is the workflow ENCY CAM is built for — shops where collisions, tool breakage, or cycle-time overruns are not an option.

5-axis simulation on the trunnion
The mid-video sequence shows ENCY CAM's machining verification view — an aerospace-style impeller mounted on a rotary/tilting trunnion, with the toolpath, tool geometry, and machine kinematics checked before a single chip is cut. G-code labels (G54, N2T2) on-screen tie the simulation directly to what the control will execute.

Plunge Roughing for aggressive material removal
The featured strategy in the pitch is ENCY CAM's Plunge Roughing — an axial-plunge approach that removes material faster than side-milling on high-modulus alloys and deep pockets, and keeps radial cutter loads low so long-reach tools don't chatter. It is the strategy CUBE CADTECH highlights for aerospace shops trying to shave cycle time on tough materials.
