What is FeatureCAM?

FeatureCAM is a family of CAD/CAM software designed for automated CNC programming. It's used to automate the process of creating CNC programs for milling, turning, and wire EDM machines from CAD data. FeatureCAM uses feature recognition to identify machinable features in the CAD model and then automatically generates toolpaths and NC code to machine those features.
