SmartCAM Production Turning
SmartCAM Production Turning™
software creates efficient toolpath and
CNC code for 2-axis lathes. As the first
tier in the SmartCAM ® family of turning
applications, it offers the functionality you
need today plus an easy, long term growth
path for your future needs. Like all
SmartCAM applications, Production
Turning is designed to help you reduce
your programming time, improve your
machining processes, and deliver your
customer’s parts quicker.

boring, or counterboring operations
with minimal input.

SmartCAM Production Turning provides
comprehensive solutions that help you get
jobs done faster and shorten part delivery
times, including:

Eliminate Surprises

Fast, flexible toolpath geometry
Automatic roughing routines:

Linear operations are generated at any

angle. For undercut roughing,
SmartCAM automatically identifies
the part and material boundaries for
any areas not cut by the back of the
tool.
Contour roughing follows the finish
profile.
Groove roughing cuts are generated
for the ID, OD, or face of your part.
Comprehensive threading support:
Creates inside and outside
diameter, left- or right-hand, and
straight or tapered threads.
Uses built-in thread tables or you
can create your own.
Generates code as a canned cycle
or as toolpath.
Intelligent drilling cycles:
Quickly generate code or canned
cycle output for drilling, tapping,

Visual verification capabilities
improve product quality and save you
machine time and material costs.
Better organize your data using
Containers, Show/Hide, improved
Layer functions and View Filters
3D Cut Verification – ShowCut™
simulates the tool motion while
cutting the part from a stock model,
just as it will happen on your
machine, letting you verify your
program before generating
toolpath.
Show Path simulates the machining
process to show you how your
material will be cut before you put
it on the machine.
Dimensioning and notes
capabilities help with shop floor
documentation
Custom tool graphics help you
visualize special tools as well as the
standard ball, bull-nosed, and
square tools supported by the
software.

Ease of Use
SmartCAM applications operate on
Microsoft Windows 7 Professional,
Microsoft Vista® Business, Windows
XP® and Windows 2000 operating
systems. The user interface uses
manufacturing terminology and logical
operation sequences that even first time
users will find familiar and experienced
users can apply quickly.
