Re: CAM/ g code interpreter... HSM oriented

Along these same lines... of the more affordable CAM packages which
of them focus on high speed machining for 3d profiling? What
is "essential" for HSM? I'm assuming accel/decel control, look-
forward ability, etc.? What else to look for? I would like to run
smaller cutters (3/16" and 1/4" single flute for aluminum only) at
high rpm and high feeds (around 150-200ipm) with thinner cuts (1/2D).

Appreciate it folks.
