Introduction

This example will show you how you can use RoboDK for 5-axis robot machining using the Mastercam plugin. In this example the goal is to trim the excess material around a car hood using a Fanuc robot with a cutting tool mounted on a spindle.

With the RoboDK plug-in for Mastercam you can quickly set up robot machining projects direclty from Mastercam to RoboDK. This plug-in allows you to program more than 50 different robot manufacturers and 500 robots.

The RoboDK plug-in for Mastercam supports NCI (native preprocessed Mastercam files) and standard APT CLS and G-code files. The plug-in is free if you have purchased a RoboDK license.
