Powermill is a 3D Computer-aided manufacturing app developed by Autodesk Inc. It runs on Microsoft Windows and is used in many different engineering industries to determine optimal toolpaths to reduce time and manufacturing costs.
Powermill rapidly creates toolpaths on large, complex parts, works with surfaces, solids and STL meshes. It uses efficient roughing strategies and can create gouge and collision free toolpaths, which can be edited and optimized. The software obtains comprehensive range of finishing toolpaths, user-defined macros and templates for automated CAM, extensive library of tool types for use with 3- and 5-axis milling, and specialist tools for demanding industries and applications.
3DEXPERIENCE is a collaborative platform for creating products and services in the cloud, particularly in the area of design, engineering, and manufacturing.
3DEXPERIENCE allows everyone involved to interact and work together on a product: exchange data, contribute to a design, build and test a virtual model.
The platform also has its marketplace for on-demand manufacturing, 3D parts catalog, and engineering services.
A CAD file is an output of a CAD software, containing key information about the designed object: its geometry and topology representation, 3D model hierarchy, metadata, and visual attributes depending on the format of the file.
