Alphacam-designer-2020 -

: Automatically closes small gaps between surfaces on imported models and creates edge curves for missing faces to produce solid bodies ready for machining.

is a specialized direct modelling CAD solution designed by Hexagon to bridge the gap between design and manufacturing. It is primarily used to prepare geometry for machining by repairing, modifying, or simplifying solid and surface models before they enter the CAM environment. Core Functionality alphacam-designer-2020

: The offset tool now retains layer attributes, colors, Z-levels, and custom user attributes while transferring machining associativity to the new geometry. : Automatically closes small gaps between surfaces on

: Introduced conditional "if/else" structures, allowing complex rules to be defined that can affect multiple variables or layers simultaneously. System Requirements (Minimum) Core Functionality : The offset tool now retains

: Features a simulation session powered by the same engine as the post-processor, ensuring a direct correlation between NC code (XYZ/ABC data) and the visual simulation.

To run ALPHACAM Designer 2020 effectively, the following hardware is recommended by Hexagon : ALPHACAM System Requirements - Hexagon

: Allows users to select and machine planar or cylindrical solid faces directly without extracting geometry or manually creating workplanes.
