great for positioning -especially with feature recognition. If you want full 5axis simultaneous forget fcam and move on to Delcam powermill - its the dogs bollocks!!!

Has anyone used it? I'm curious to hear what types of tool path strategies it uses...

hmmmm.
lets see.....DelCam makers of powermill purchase EGS makers of FeatureCam one year later FeatureCam has full simultanious 5 axis.... :O
Yes I have played with it biggest drawback right now is lack of post of course I expect that to be fixed as its popularity continues to increase
an affordable USER FRIENDLY 5 axis software...pretty sure its going to continue to increase in popularity!
