JETCAM Releases Solid Edge Importer Plug In
Available free for JETCAM v16 users
TERRASSES
DU PORT, Monaco, Nov 13, 2008 - JETCAM International s.a.r.l. today
announced the release of a free plug-in for its Expert CADCAM and nesting
software to allow users of Solid Edge to directly unfold and import 3D
files.
The
plug-in, available free to all users of v16 of JETCAM with a current
maintenance contract, also extends the reach of JETCAM’s automation to Solid
Edge users by allowing Solid Edge files to be automatically processed using
features such as Single Component Automatic Processing (SCAP) or Remote
Control Processing (RCP).
Companies using SCAP can set JETCAM to ‘listen’ for files to arrive into
a predetermined folder. When files arrive they can be automatically
imported, tooling or profiling applied (depending on whether the part is to
be punched or profiled) and a nest of each part can be created, with NC code
being produced automatically. RCP takes this further by allowing tight
integration into legacy data systems such as MRP. JETCAM’s order list can be
externally populated. Once done, JETCAM can automatically unfold and import
the CAD file and construct highly efficient dissimilar part nests – all
without any user intervention.
Mike Weber, Managing Director for JETCAM International s.a.r.l.
commented; “We are continuing our philosophy of automation, so extending to
systems such as Solid Edge is a natural progression. Any stage of production
that requires manual intervention creates an overhead, and with current
market conditions anything that can streamline that process will deliver
savings. The fact that this is available free to all V16 customers under
maintenance is further justification to our commitment of demonstrable
return on investment.”
