OPEN MIND presents hyperMILL® 2013.2. The new advanced CAM software has been vastly improved, primarily in its CAD component, hyperCAD®-S, which facilitates and speeds up the user’s work – also with respect to tool and mould making. In hyperCAD®-S, OPEN MIND has developed its own CAD system that is ideally matched to the CAM system hyperMILL®. This CAD solution is specifically designed to address the requirements of NC programmers. In Version 2013.2, hyperCAD®-S has been improved in a number of ways. Importing and analysing parts Tool and mould making, in particular, is always associated with geometries from a variety of sources. To import these reliably, hyperCAD®-S comes with a series of first-rate interfaces. They have now been enhanced for the import of 2D entities, 3D meshes and dimensions as vector graphics by adding a DXF/DWG interface. This allows for layers, colours, line types and workplanes to be imported, provided they were defined in

Staff in the UK, Germany, Switzerland, France, the Netherlands and the U.S. started their cycling campaign on April 11th. 50 cents per kilometre cycled in June/July went to a good cause, and the monthly cyclists’ breakfasts grew with the CO2 saved. This is the third year the engineering software company has sponsored a cycling for charity campaign. Gudrun Tebart of CAD Schroer Germany explains, “But this year we extended the campaign from one month to six. We encouraged staff to cycle to work and record the distance they travelled on two wheels, whether they were able to cycle all the way, or from a Park & Ride. We also organised after-work cycle rides to rack up additional km for charity. We wanted to make sure everyone could take part, so those who couldn’t cycle at all earned charity km for making food to share at our monthly breakfasts.” CAD Schroer donated
