HSM Performance Pack includes an impressive set of machining strategies which are all built on our own new, state-of-the-arts, multi-core, 64-bit kernel. Every single strategy has been developed for maximum performance, flexibility and to accommodate customer requirements.

Every aspect of HSM Performance Pack has undergone extensive testing in real production environments and has been put to the test in shops, by our test users, for years. User feedback has and still is an essential part in shaping HSM Performance Pack and has resulted in custom and highly specialized features being built into the software.
