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.
NCSIMUL Hires New Midwestern Territory Account Manager
Jim Ellingsen will work with customers using Hexagon’s manufacturing simulation solution
Automated Adaptive Milling
Automated adaptive blade milling from Liechti Engineering measures the workpiece in the machine and CAM software generates and optimizes a tool path that eliminates human error, optimizes productivity and ensures the highest quality result.
Next Steps in Progressive Die Design
VISI 2020.1 mold and die software from Hexagon improves progressive die design processes and enhances part unfolding, deburring, reverse and graphics functionality.
Smarter Automation of Complex Jobs that Require Multiple Processes
Alphacam 2020.1 from Hexagon simplifies the automated creation of jobs and orders for complex work that is output to more than one machine or requires secondary processing at the same machine.
