Feature-Based Machining in NX CAM

NX CAM can automate CNC programing by using Feature-Based Machining (FBM). The generative FBM technology automatically determines the machining process for a wide range of features. NX uses the Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI), such as tolerances and surface finish callouts attached to the 3D model, to drive the machining method selection.
