Real-Time Machining Simulation for Digital Dentistry
ModuleWorks, Bosch Rexroth and CIMT combined their respective simulation, CNC and milling expertise to create new efficiencies for dental labs and practices. An operator can simulate the dental machining process offline and fix problems before the real job begins.
MecSoft-RoboDK Partnership Facilitates Milling with Robots
The synergistic alliance between Mecsoft and RobotDK means milling solutions can be adapted for robotic milling applications. The RobotDK simulation software supports over 500 robot arms and more than 50 different robot controllers.
Ultimate Nesting for Punching Machines
The latest RADAN software for sheet metal fabrication provides savings on raw materials and quicker nesting production. Users can produce more parts per sheet, so it takes less time to produce a batch – saving about 50 minutes per day for 80 nests.
Mill Just About Anywhere with Single-Phase CNC Machine
When introduced in 2016, Datron Dynamics’ neo used three-phase power. Now, an internally contained transformer provides single-phase power to minimize the CNC milling machine’s footprint while maximizing installation options.
CAM Update Enhances Swiss Machining Support
DP Technology’s ESPRIT 2020 CAM system features new or improved support for 200 different Swiss-type machine models. And with its improved CAD functions, users can better design and visualize parts before manufacturing begins.
CAM Software Takes Off – Supports NASA Star Mission
A Massachusetts computerized machine shop creates critical camera-mount brackets using Open Mind Technologies’ hyperMILL CAM software. Ramco Machine achieves the necessary tight tolerances with 5-axis machining of a nickel-iron alloy that holds up to launches and the temperature swings of outer space.
Cloud-Based Cutting Tool Configurator Saves Time and Money
MachiningCloud fast-tracks a shop’s entire workflow by providing direct access to tooling data and speed-and-feed recommendations that can be read directly into CAM and simulation programs. In addition to enabling users to quickly configure the right tool for a job, the platform provides pricing and availability.
Multiaxis Machining Gives Shops Competitive Advantage
With simultaneous 4- and 5-axis machining capabilities, the Mastercam Multiaxis add-on puts basic and advanced machining strategies into the user’s hands. A ‘near miss tolerance’ setting lets the machinist determine how close the cutter can come to the part.
Hexagon to Acquire CAE Software Maker Romax Technology
Adding Romax’s expertise in electromechanical drivetrain design and simulation to its Manufacturing Intelligence division will, says Hexagon, enhance its Smart Factory Solutions.
Upgraded Milling Software Suite
The latest version of hyperMILL 2020.1 CAD/CAM software from Open Mind Technologies includes 3D and 5-axis machining enhancements for complex parts as well as new automation and additive manufacturing strategies.
Easy Scheduling, Monitoring with CAD/CAM Software Package
The Bysoft 7 software package enables users to quickly and easily design custom parts and input existing drawing and models for editing and processing.
Reworking, Hybrid and Additive Manufacturing Enabled in One Process
Open Mind Technologies’ CAM software offers the ultimate in hybrid production: directed energy deposition (DED) or wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) and subtractive processing on one machine.
