“The time saving is epic. What used to take a week, now takes a day.” Those are the words of Ollie Crosthwaite, Managing Director of a specialist manufacturer of engines and components for historic racing cars. He was referring to the difference Edgecam’s new port machining module makes to producing cylinder heads for historic Jaguar racing cars. “If anyone wants to win an E-Type Jaguar race, they won’t do it without our engines.” He says the main issue with porting Jaguar cylinder heads is their depth and the amount of shape in the port. “Most ports are short and straight, but Jaguar’s are very long with a lot of curve. We use a lollipop cutter on a 5-axis machine to get inside successfully, and because of the depth of the port, we machine from both sides.” Paul Bumfrey, CNC programmer at Crosthwaite And Gardiner, says even using Edgecam’s powerful Advanced

ModuleWorks, the leading supplier of CAD/CAM components for toolpath creation and CNC simulation is happy to join the consortium for the European Twin Control project. The first of October saw the start of the European project Twin-Control, an alliance of eleven European partners that aims to design a new concept for machine tool and machining process simulation. The project will last for 36 months, has a total budget of 5.6 million euros and is partially funded by the European Union under the European Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, Horizon 2020 (grant agreement No. 680725). Twin-Control is a new concept of machine tool simulation because it unifies the different concepts that affect the machining process, combining advanced simulation models and including vital aspects in today’s industry, such as maintenance and energy efficiency. In addition, it will allow for the integration of the actual machine state in the models, increasing productivity through model-based
