Mill/turn complete machining CAM module allows operators to switch between turning and milling strategies at any time whilst they are programming

At the UK’s MACH 2008 machine tool exhibition, Open Mind Technologies UK will present its latest innovations for efficient CAM programming. Highlights will include the mill/turn hyperMILL millTURN module for complete machining on milling and turning machines, the new CAD integration of hyperMILL in SolidWorks and the latest version of hyperMill V10 – all to be shown in the UK for the first time.

The capabilities of Open Mind products will be highlighted with numerous live demonstrations of workpieces programmed using hyperMILL.

These will take place on the Open Mind stand as well as on the stands of the various machine tool partners.

Open Mind’s technology partners include the following.

* Agie Charmilles UK.

* CG-Tech.

* CMS Group.

* DMG UK.

* Hurco Europe.

* Mori-Seiki UK.

* Seco Tools UK.

* YMT.

Some of which will be using hyperMill cam software at MACH to provide live machining demonstrations.

Live demonstrations taking place at MACH, said Open Mind to manufacturingtalk.com, will show that hyperMILL is not only a flexible and user-friendly cam system but also a system that delivers first-class machining results.

Further details on live demonstrations can be found on the Open Mind stand at the show.

* Mill/turn in one program – as well as providing multiple demonstrations at MACH with its technology partners, visitors to Open Mind’s stand will be able to witness the hyperMILL millTURN Version 10 CAM software for milling and mill-turning with just one program.

The ability to accurately manufacture complex parts in a single set-up, reduce set-up times and increase efficiency has brought considerable demand for the mill/turn module that has been integrated into hyperMILL.

Users can switch between turning and milling strategies at any time whilst they are programming.

It also allows users to generate NC programs very easily.

The tool database, automatic stock tracking, stock management and collision control are available for all turning and milling strategies.

A mill/turn postprocessor ensures that a complete NC file is produced.

In addition to the new mill/turn module, hyperMill V10 promises to increase performance considerably thanks to its multi-core processor support.

Alongside this will be version V10 presented for the first time at MACH.

This is destined to be a major highlight for all SolidWorks users as this version includes the new CAD integration of hyperMILL in SolidWorks.

This integration allows users to work with hyperMILL in their familiar SolidWorks environment.

This version will also support Windows Vista.

* Open Mind at MACH 2008, NEC, Birmingham, UK, April 21-25, Hall 5, Stand 5556.
