The
EuroMold
exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany, has been the last big
tradeshow for us in the year 2006. Our booth in hall 8 was a
meeting place for end users as well as for existing and
potential resellers. We not only presented the new version
SolidCAM2007 R11, but also demonstrated together with our
partner Fanuc
Robomachine applications of 5 axis machining. Of course,
the new HSM module was the focus of interest. Both existing
and new customers appreciated the toolpaths generated by this
module. The HSM toolpaths improve the productivity of both
High-Speed and existing CNC machines by reducing air-cutting
and adding smoothing arcs that maintain continuous machine
tool motion and thus create perfect surface finish.
As
our valued customer we recommend highly that you evaluate the
power of the new HSM module - the results will be simply
amazing! Contact your local reseller to arrange the evaluation
of the new HSM module in SolidCAM2007 R11.
Dear reader,
on behalf of SolidCAM, I wish you Merry Chrismas and a Happy
and Successful New Year 2007.

INglass grows with
SolidCAM+SolidWorks |
|
|
The
Italian INglass
group supplies injection compression technology for the
production of panoramic polycarbonate sheets as a replacement
for glass in the automotive industry ("Plastic glazing"). As
the leading company in Italy in this segment, INglass serves
car manufacturers like Honda, BMW, Porsche, Audi,
Daimler-Chrysler, Volvo and Ford.
In 2001, INglass
introduced SolidWorks for the design of the molds and the hot
runner systems, followed shortly later by the introduction of
SolidCAM for the programming of the CNC machines. The SolidCAM
application covers 2.5 and 3D milling of the mold cavities and
other complex 3D parts including the machining of ejector
holes and cooling channels. The generated G-Code feeds CNC
machines from Mazak, CB Ferrarri and Parpas.

Benefits of complete CAD/CAM
integration |
|
|
The
"Desktop Engineering
Magazine" recently published an article about the
benefits of a complete CAD/CAM integration. The author, Mark
Driscoll, summarized the experience of several companies using
CAM software fully integrated in SolidWorks.
One of
these companies is SolidCAM´s customer Alpha
Engineering and Design (AED), a job shop that produces
vacuum chambers and provides manufacturing services to the
aerospace, semiconductor, and thin-film coating industries.
Moving to the integrated SolidWorks+ SolidCAM
solution reduced production cycles at AED by more
than 75 percent.
James Thompson, Vice-President of
Operations of AED, stated: "An integrated package allows you
to streamline the entire process...We are saving more than six
hours in programming, testing, and editing G code for each new
component, making the entire process from order to production
about four times faster. We are saving hours per day and days
per week, which keeps us ahead of competitors both foreign and
domestic." |
