Lathe
Powerful, Flexible Tools For Turning

Lathe
Efficient programming, designed for modern manufacturing.
Mastercam Lathe delivers a set of easy-to-use, advanced programming tools, with greatly expanded options when paired with Mastercam Mill. Easy rough, finish, thread, groove, bore, and drill routines combine with C/Y-axis machining to cut any job. Dependable toolpath verification ensures your parts are done right the first time.

Select lathes offer expanded job setup, part transfer, and programming options

Safe machine and cut control.
- Chuck, part steady rest, and tailstock detection.
- Automatic gouge checking on the tool’s front and back.
Control chip breakage on difficult-to-machine materials. - Full collet and solid jaw support.
- Expanded job setup, part transfer, and programming options on select lathes.
Fast, easy, and precise turning
- Program in a few clicks with Quick Toolpaths.
- Complete threading including custom thread forms.
- Grooving with multiple depth cuts, peck motion, and full-radius plunge turning.
- Intelligent ID, OD, face roughing, and finishing.
- Full milling supports available for machines with live tooling or C and Y axes
KEY BENEFITS:
Efficiency
Quickly translate geometry and create a part transfer operation from the main spindle to sub spindle and/or a bar pull operation prior to a cutoff toolpath.
Tool Inspection
Automatically stop machining to check the insert during your roughing, finishing, and grooving operations.
