CNC Software, developer of Mastercam CAD/CAM software, announces their collaboration with DMG MORI USA to produce a seamless interface to the Mori-APT workflow. DMG MORI has certified Mastercam to program the DMG MORI mill, lathes, and mill-turn machines that are supported within their Manufacturing Suite Post Processor. DMG MORI has provided a standard tool path format, called Mori-APT, which acts as the generic input into their Manufacturing Suite post processor to power a growing number of their machines. The intent of this format is that CAM packages, such as Mastercam, will only have to output tool path to this format, and the DMG MORI interface will then tailor the NC code output for the target machine. With the DMG MORI Manufacturing Suite, customers will use a post processor developed and provided by DMG MORI for any of the DMG MORI machines supported by the Manufacturing Suite. Mastercam users will continue to program

SURFCAM and Radan reseller 3D Concepts Gmbh (www.3dconcepts.de) has opened 2 new offices in Germany.
