hyperMILL 2025 CAM Software Enhances 5-Axis Toolpath Efficiency

April 28, 2025
OPEN MIND Technologies’ hyperMILL 2025 CAM Software features a fast and safe 5-axis hole deburring strategy for improved edge finishing.

hyperMILL 2025 CAM Software is a CAD/CAM software suite designed for accurate, efficient 2.5D, 3D, precision 5-axis, and mill/turn machining. It now includes a 5-axis automatic tool orientation mode that pre-analyzes the entire tool path to calculate machining sequences of simultaneous and indexed tool movements, reducing programming time for complex parts.

A new 5-axis hole deburring strategy automatically recognizes and marks sharp edges on holes and intersecting holes for quick selection and toolpath generation. This strategy supports both 3 and 5-axis machining modes, with the 5-axis option offering greater reach and automatic collision avoidance.

The pocket milling algorithm for high feed cutters has been redeveloped for 3D-optimized roughing, improving control and efficiency when machining large lateral in-feeds and remaining material. Contour and path radii can be defined to enhance toolpath rounding.

Linking movements have been further refined with Dynamic Stock technology, which generates an updated stock model for all machining jobs and incorporates it into linking movement calculations.

Additional updates in hyperMILL 2025 include a revised 5-axis profile milling cycle, a new 5-axis ISO machining cycle, and enhancements to turning postprocessors for main and sub spindle applications on Siemens, Fanuc, and Mitsubishi (Mazak) controls.
