Delcam to Unveil CAM Range Versions at Japan's JIMTOF Expo
 BIRMINGHAM,
UK, Oct 9, 2008 - Delcam Japan will launch new versions across the complete
range of the company’s machining software at the JIMTOF exhibition to be
held at the Tokyo Big Sight from 28th October to 4th November. JIMTOF is the
biggest machine tool exhibition in Asia and so provides an ideal platform
for Delcam, the world’s leading specialist CAM company, to show its latest
developments to manufacturers from Japan and across Asia.
New version of PowerMILL offers more complete solution
for programming of complex parts
The complete range of Delcam machining software comprises PowerMILL for
high-speed and five-axis machining, FeatureCAM for feature-based
programming, PartMaker for Swiss-type lathes and turn-mill equipment, and
ArtCAM for engraving and routing. Together, these programs comprise the
world’s most comprehensive range of CAM software from a single suppler. This
means that Delcam can provide larger companies with a single source for all
of their CAM programming needs. At the same time, the broad coverage means
that Delcam can also supply smaller companies with exactly the software they
need, rather than a compromise solution from a more limited choice.
The new release of Delcam’s award-winning PowerMILL CAM software offers a
more complete solution for complex machining operations, together with more
control for experienced machinists that know exactly how they wish to
machine a particular part. The program also incorporates a number of
improvements to reduce calculation times, together with some simplification
of the user interface that makes it easier to select the required command
and so makes programming faster. In addition, toolpath ordering has been
made more efficient, especially for roughing and rest machining, so ensuring
that the cutter spends more time machining and minimal time making air
moves.
FeatureCAM 2009 incorporates enhancements across its complete range of
functionality, reflecting the increased investment in product development
following Delcam’s acquisition of the software in 2005. An important focus
has been increased options for more complex machines, such as mill-turn
equipment, and four- and five-axis mills. This allows users to tackle more
sophisticated parts than could be programmed before. Developments have also
continued to increase the efficiency of the more fundamental machining
operations, including turning, and two- and three-axis milling.
Major highlights of the new release of PartMaker include a revamped and
more productive user-interface, improved capabilities for programming
directly on solid models and more realistic machine simulation for the
increasingly-complex machine architectures of today’s multi-axis turn-mill
centres and Swiss-type lathes. The enhanced user interface will make
PartMaker users even more productive in programming their CNC equipment,
while offering new users and even easier to learn, more capable CNC
programming platform.
Improvements across the ArtCAM family of software include new sculpting
and embossing tools in the Pro and JewelSmith versions. On the machining
side, the main emphasis has been on improved strategies for harder materials
to enable more efficient and faster engraving of metal tooling. Other
enhancements across the complete ArtCAM range include the ability to export
designs in the 3D pdf format used by the Adobe Acrobat reader, auto-recovery
of data, for example if there is a power failure to the computer, and much
more realistic simulation of machining in a variety of materials.
