Delcam Programs for Machine Tool Partners at TIMTOS
Programs produced with Delcam software will be used on sixteen machine tool partner stands at the TIMTOS exhibition to be held in Taipei, Taiwan, from 2nd to 7th March. Toolpaths generated with PowerMILL, FeatureCAM and PartMaker will be featured on the various stands, with many of the partners showing a number of parts machined with more than one of the Delcam systems.
The full list of partners is as follows:-
AWEA Mechatronic Co. Ltd.
Buffalo Machinery Co. Ltd.
Ching Hung Machinery & Electric Ind. Co. Ltd.
Euma-Spinner Corp.
Gentiger Machinery Industrial Co. Ltd.
Goodway Machine Corp.
Hardinge Machine Tools B.V.
Hurco Manufacturing Ltd.
Leadwell CNC Machines Mfg. Corp.
Quaser Machine Tools Inc.
She Hong Industrial Co. Ltd.
Shenq Fang Yuan Technology Co. Ltd.
Victor Taichung Machinery Works Co. Ltd.
Wele Mechatronic Co. Ltd.
Yamazaki Mazak Corp.
Yeong Ching Machinery Industries Co. Ltd.
As well as the machining demonstrations, visitors to the exhibition will be able to see programming demonstrations of the latest versions of Delcam machining software on the Delcam Taiwan stand. The complete range comprises PowerMILL for high-speed and five-axis machining, FeatureCAM for feature-based programming, PartMaker for Swiss-type lathes and turn-mill equipment, and ArtCAM for engraving and routing. This broad coverage is one of the reasons why Delcam is consistently ranked as a world’s leading specialist supplier of NC software and services by US analysts CIMdata.
The new release of PowerMILL offer a more complete solution for complex machining operations, together with more control for experienced machinists that know exactly how they wish to machine a particular part. The program also includes a range of enhancements to existing functionality to enable both faster programming and faster machining.
FeatureCAM 2009 also incorporates enhancements across its complete range of functionality. An important focus has been increased options for more complex machines, such as mill-turn equipment, and four- and five-axis mills. This will allow users to tackle more sophisticated parts than could be programmed before. Developments have also continued increase the efficiency of the more fundamental machining operations, including turning and three-axis milling.
Major highlights of the new release of PartMaker include a revamped and more productive user-interface, improved capabilities for programming directly on solid models and more realistic machine simulation for the increasingly-complex machine architectures of today’s multi-axis turn-mill centres and Swiss-type lathes. The enhanced user interface will make PartMaker users even more productive in programming their CNC equipment, while offering new users an even easier to learn, more capable CNC programming platform.
