![]() 523 forum posts 95 photos | We currently use Autodesk / Delcam Power mill and Power shape for all our tool room machining. Since Autodesk bought up Delcam they have been developing Fusion 360 using Delcams technology. We have recently bought a Hurco 5 axis machine, I am trying to decide if to stick with Autodesk or move over to Hexagon Visi NC (which we use for all our design) I have spoken to our Autodesk dealer but don't seem to be able to get a simple answer to these questions. 1. Will fusion 360 be able to produce cutter paths for simultaneous 5 axis machining? 2. How much will it cost? Thanks for any help

257 forum posts 14 photos | News just in from Autodesk March update to Fusion 360 will add 3+1 and 3+2 CAM as part of the flat rate licence with 4 and 5 axis only available via Extensions. All for less than a subscription to Sky. What's not to like ? |

257 forum posts 14 photos | I bought my licence not long after attending an NYC CNC training course. Autodesk were offering 50% discount which was an offer I couldn't refuse. They still seem to offer discounts of 30% every now and then. |
