Earlier this year BobCAD-CAM released its all new 2 & 4 Axis Wire EDM CAD-CAM software to the manufacturing industry sparking a huge interest across the Wire EDM manufacturing sectors. The new Wire EDM software had been rebuilt from the ground up offering all of the new CNC programming technology that the latest Milling system offered in terms of using machining wizards and more, bringing the Wire EDM system current and giving EDM programmers a major advantage in using CAM to machine their parts. With so many new features having been added, the BobCAD-CAM training team went into action compiling a large line of multimedia video training movies to teach new users the product and bring existing customers up to speed fast. The set includes over 30 videos that walk you through the fundamentals and functionality of the software and includes videos for both 2 & 4 Axis programming. Also

Bentley Systems, Incorporated, announced the availability of Bentley’s Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). This breakthrough technology for the integrated engineering management of underground utility networks for water, storm water, gas, and electric services is built on OpenRoads, Bentley’s collaborative BIM advancement for multi-discipline civil engineering projects. Bentley’s SUE brings together data from multiple sources and geo-coordinates it for 3D modeling, interactive inspection, and utility conflict detection and clash resolution. By providing a framework of powerful software tools and rich content to quickly and easily generate high-fidelity, intelligent 3D feature-based models of the buried construction zone, SUE mitigates the risks of building in utility-congested, “call-before-you-dig” underground environments. These risks can range from project delays to damaged subsurface utilities to explosions that threaten below- and above-ground infrastructure as well as human life. Commenting on the new offering, Bentley Systems CEO Greg Bentley said, “In cities around the world, the area that I believe poses the biggest risk to those designing, building,

More than fifteen years ago, just after Delcam Sales Partner MultiCAM had started its activities in the Argentinean market, it had the good fortune to meet Claudio Miot, owner of Mi-Pa-Met srl. Mr. Miot had developed his professional career inside companies specialising in the manufacture of sheet metal spare parts for cars, before founding his own company. From the very beginning, Mr. Miot was convinced that making the right investment decisions at the right time would help his company to grow rapidly.  After discussions with MultiCAM, Mi-Pa-Met decided to start with an investment in metrology, buying its first CMM with Delcam’s PowerINSPECT inspection software.  "The software helped Mi-pa-met to move forward more quickly, not only by putting us in a position to supply to new customers such as Mercedes Benz but also by improving our quality procedures,” said Mr. Miot. The investment in Delcam software continued as Mi-Pa-Met expanded, with the PowerSHAPE Pro

Cimatron Limited announced that a recent test cut in Japan using CimatronE dramatically reduced machining time by 72%. The complete results will be shown at the Design, Engineering and Manufacturing Solutions Expo (DMS) in Tokyo, Japan, June 25-27, 2014. CimatronE provides integrated design and NC programming solutions for mold and die makers and manufacturers of discrete parts. At the booth of CimatronE distributor Saeilo (booth East #9-30), a machined tire mold and a video documenting the mold's machining process will be shown. The mold was created in record time on a Mazak Variaxis i-700 machine using CimatronE's Rough VoluMill and 5-axis finishing capabilities. Using traditional machining capabilities, the milling time for this particular job was 134 minutes. With CimatronE's VoluMill, the milling time was only 38 minutes - a dramatic time saving of 72%. Cimatron with VoluMill generates a high volume, yet constant, material removal rate toolpath with smooth, stress-free moves, and cutting in sweet zones throughout, regardless of

EPLAN is pushing forward with its international expansion course: Japan, South Africa and Turkey are the new direct sales locations of the engineering software provider. At the start of the year, EPLAN Software & Services K.K. was founded with its headquarters in Tokyo. Establishment of the branch is progressing with Shinya Nito as Managing Director and Dr. Carsten Metelmann as International Sales Director. This move involves intensive collaboration on-site with sister company Rittal, which has been active on the Japanese market for the last 25 years with system solutions for control cabinet engineering. Japan is one of the world's largest markets for software and manufacturing industry. EPLAN intends to participate more intensively in the fast-paced development of software-based engineering, and at the same time can bring its expertise into play in the course of globalisation. Within the last year, Mitsubishi Electric has accepted EPLAN into its eF@ctory Alliance partner programme. At the start

 PDF Key takeaways: Dassault Systèmes’ well known CATIA solution is evolving away from a mechanical CAD tool to a comprehensive systems modeling solution. A number of new brands were introduced during the recent industry analyst event, including BIOVIA and 3DXcite. Dassault Systèmes is well on its way to becoming, as they say, the 3DEXPERIENCE Company. On the 11th and 12th of June, Dassault Systèmes held their annual industry analyst event at their worldwide headquarters in Velizy, France. The event was attended by a few dozen industry analysts, twelve of whom were at the event for the first time. Bernard Charlès, Dassault Systèmes’ CEO and President, energetically kicked off the event by clearly articulating the company’s vision and commitment to building a robust and industry leading 3DEXPERIENCE Platform. Mr. Charlès reminded the group that Dassault Systèmes began this platform journey in 2004 as an internal set of secret projects and then made their intentions public in
