madCAM is the definitive professional CAM plugin for Rhinoceros 3D, specifically designed for precision 3-axis, 4-axis, and simultaneous 5-axis milling. By operating directly inside the Rhino interface, madCAM allows industrial designers and engineers to move from 3D modelling to CNC toolpath generation without ever leaving their CAD environment.
Whether you are working in mold making, jewellery production, or heavy mechanical engineering, madCAM leverages the native precision of NURBS geometry to ensure your toolpaths are mathematically accurate and manufacture-ready.
Key Machining Features
- Simultaneous 5-Axis Milling: Full coordination across all axes for complex organic and freeform surfaces.
- NURBS-Based Calculation: High-precision toolpaths calculated directly from smooth surfaces for superior finishes.
- High-Speed Machining (HSM): Intelligent roughing and finishing strategies that optimize cutter life and reduce cycle times.
- Material Simulation: Integrated 3D simulation with collision detection to verify your milling before production.
Hardware & Environment
- System: Windows 10/11 (64-bit). Works natively within Rhino 7 and Rhino 8.
- Requirements: 8GB RAM Minimum; i7/i9 or Ryzen 7/9 recommended for large projects.
- Licensing: Perpetual license (Permanent); 30-Day evaluation trial available.
