Lantek has improved its software this year. New features enable more accurate calculations of time and increased productivity for the metal industry. The multinational has perfected the CAM 2D even more to improve the preparation of work and to ensure the accuracy of time calculations for laser machines. Likewise, the software offers improved flexibility for machines that have Fly-Cut mode, allowing machining to alternate between Fly-Cut and normal modes using the offset configured in the software or machine. This new version establishes new parameters for the machine´s configuration, as well as new algorithms that enable much more accurate time calculations, taking into consideration both the acceleration of the headstock and the most advanced strategies of the most innovative machines. Lantek´s technical director, Asier Ortiz, underscored that "completely accurate calculations lead to immediate and substantial improvements in production planning and costs." Another innovation is a more flexible and automatic text marking feature. When identifying a piece,

Bentley Systems, Incorporated, announced that registration is now open for The Year in Infrastructure 2015 Conference, being held Nov. 3-5 at the Hilton London Metropole in London, U.K. This global gathering of leading figures in the world of infrastructure design, construction, and operations features a series of presentations and interactive workshops that explore the intersection of technology and business drivers, and how they are shaping the future of infrastructure delivery and investment returns. Chris Barron, Bentley Systems vice president, corporate communications, said, “We’ve been very gratified by the enthusiastic feedback from attendees to our Year in Infrastructure conferences. The participating executives from architectural and engineering firms, construction companies, and owner-operator and government organizations found the sessions to be engaging and well worth the relatively small investment in their time. Many were able to incorporate into their strategic planning the valuable insights gained on advancements in technology and best practices, and virtually all were motivated by the Be

In November 2014, the TracePartsOnline.net engineering platform achieved the amazing figure of two million registered users. To celebrate this milestone, TraceParts decided to offer its two millionth registered user the revolutionary Myo™ gesture control armband from Thalmic Labs. The way the Myo™ armband works is simple. It is worn around the forearm and connects to compatible electronic objects via Bluetooth. After having memorized a series of control gestures, Myo™ picks up electrical impulses from muscles in the forearm and transforms theme into “orders” for the object used, such as a computer or a telephone. This technology allows users to interact with connected devices using simple, intuitive movements. The lucky winner of this Myo™ armband was David Henderson, a mechanical engineer at NEC Energy Solutions. He became our two millionth registered user when searching through the TraceParts online library for electrical components to integrate in the renewable energy production equipment that his company supplies and
