Full time programming support
Quick turn and solid program, no adjustments required. The CAM Factory is the best way to get high level programming into a small company.
The CAM Factory's programs have helped us grow and become more efficient, acting as a great force multiplier for our shop.
The communication was top notch, the program was really well organized, and I was able to get a program within just 2 days.
Bring your unique challenges and get expert guidance on programming strategies, fixture design, and toolpaths.
1-on-1 sessions provide a space to discuss your pain points and collaboratively solve them. Each session is conducted via video call.
Good Question! For starters, an experienced full-time programmer now exceeds $100,000, plus benefits (and good luck finding one available). Aside from that, your programming demands may fluctuate. Sometimes machines sit idle waiting for programs. Other times, programmers sit idle waiting for parts.
With the monthly plan, you can benefit from having full-time support without the commitment of a full-time employee. You don't need to worry about hiring and firing. We're always here.
With the hourly packages, you can cash in on support when demand spikes. Credit hours never expire.
All plans include:
• CNC programming of your parts
• Custom fixture design
• Programming of custom fixtures
• Detailed setup sheets with written instructions and images
• Tool lists
• Unlimited program updates
We provide the native CAD/CAM files (Fusion 360). We don't post the code. We request that you post the code to ensure compatibility with your post processor and machines.
We program 3- to 5-axis mills.
Programming requests are submitted using Trello. After subscribing to a membership plan, you will receive a link to your Trello board with instructions on how to submit requests. It's super simple. Watch the video below:
We currently use Autodesk Fusion exclusively.
All programs are verified with basic tool path simulation, and in some cases, we also offer full kinematic machine simulation. But, due to the variety of machines and post processors on the market, we strongly suggest processing the program in-house as you normally would. This is the safest choice and best practice.
On average, most requests are completed within 1-2 days. More complex parts may take longer.
One great thing about Fusion is that it is cloud-based. This means all you have to do is add us to your Fusion team and grant the correct permissions and we will have access to your tool libraries and fixture components. We provide step-by-step instructions to help you get this set up.
No, we don't accept ITAR parts at this time.
