How a Polish patternmaker prepares for the future
 
Today, computer aided design, animation and simulation plays an increasingly important role for designing better products. However, in order to really test the final design, engineers need to produce concept models and functional test parts quickly and inexpensively. In the last years, new Rapid Prototyping technologies like 3D printers helped to speed up this process. 3D Printers create physical models directly from 3D files utilizing High performance composites or elastomeric material.

The INglass Group of San Polo di Piave, Italy, was founded in 1987 as “Incos” to design and manufacture molds for the plastic injection industry. In 1991, Incos began specializing in multi-color and multi-component rotary molds for automotive lightings. Based on the experience gained in this sector, the company set up in 2001 its HRSflow division, dedicated to the design and production of hot-runner injection molding systems for plastic materials. [more...]

CKD found out that shortening of the preparation time, namely the time to generate NC toolpaths, is as important as shortening of the machining time. Since CKD manufactures a whole variety of different parts for the production lines, efficient CNC programming for each of the parts is key to minimize the overall system lead time. Formerly, the machining section worked with two different CAM systems, one for 2.5D machining and one for 3D machining. The reason was that the 2.5D CAM system was unable to create 3D tool paths, and the 3D CAM system was unsuitable to create 2.5D tool paths. So, they sometimes had to combine both CAM systems to create a single toolpath - a very time-consuming process. [more...]

The Czech high-tech shop Frencken s.r.o uses SolidCAM to solve the bottleneck in NC programming of modern 5-axis CNC machines.
 
The times have passed in which the main business for contract manufacturers in Eastern Europe was the production of simple commodity parts. Frencken Brno s.r.o., headquartered in Brno in Czech Republic, today produces the most complex parts of the highest quality for demanding customers from the aeronautics and aerospace industry, for instrument and measuring instrument makers, manufacturers of medical devices and even producers of laser and radar equipment. And the progress can no longer be attributed only to advantages of location, such as lower staff costs, less labour regulations and better tax benefits. [more...]

Griffith Rubber Mills of Portland, Oregon, bought its CNC mill only 18 months ago, keeping its tooling work in-house for the first time. According to Kris Beuchamp, SolidCAM helped make starting up with CAM simple. [more...]

“SolidCAM allows me to quickly take a design and create effective G-code for our CNC-machines,” says James Thompson, vice-president of operations at Alpha Engineering and Design (AED). Since AED implemented SolidCAM software a year ago, the time-consuming tasks of programming CNC machine code have been drastically reduced. Thompson estimates that “SolidCAM makes the entire process from design to cut four times faster.”  [more...]

"With SolidCAM, we can now do parts that we couldn’t do before - also our goal of utilizing the same model through CAD/CAE/CAM has been achieved," explains Product Development Manager Rob Hardesty of Peregrine Falcon Corporation. For Peregrine, precise, high-quality tooling is paramount because of the specialized scientific hardware for spacecraft and satellite applications that they develop." [more...]

In Germany a breakthrough agreement of over 1000 licenses of SolidWorks and SolidCAM guarantees 3D CAD/CAM training on the highest level for 3200 students in 30 technical schools. [more...]

Read about the experiences of the contract manufacturer Barth Mechanik GmbH and the metal and plastics fabricator Gerdt GmbH, who specializes in 3D parts. At both companies, thanks to the combined SolidCAM and SolidWorks solution, good product ideas are transformed into marketable high-quality products in record time. [more...]
