Celeritive VoluMill to Integrate with SigmaNEST V10
 CAVE
CREEK, AZ, Nov 24, 2009 - SigmaTEK Systems, LLC, of Cincinnati, OH, the leader in CAD/CAM nesting systems,
announced it will integrate the high-speed machining toolpath engine VoluMill in
its SigmaNEST V10 product for woodworking and aluminum fabrication, according to
a recently signed agreement with Celeritive Technologies, the developer of
VoluMill.Expected to be available in early 2010, SigmaNEST V10 powered by
VoluMill will combine SigmaNEST’s ability to optimize parts nesting for
minimum waste and minimum machine movement with VoluMill’s technology that
generates toolpaths with smooth machining motions and minimum force on the
spindle and cutting tool. VoluMill toolpaths dramatically reduce cycle times
and significantly extend the life of cutting tools.
Manufacturers of wood and aluminum sheet products often secure parts with
air suction, a method that is susceptible to abrupt sideways movements by
the tool into the part wall. VoluMill’s smooth, continuous toolpaths
eliminate this problem.
“The combined system, although primarily targeted for wood routing, will
work just as effectively for aluminum part routing,” says Glenn Binder,
SigmaTEK’s vice president of sales. “The inclusion of VoluMill further
enhances SigmaNEST’s pocket-milling capability. Furthermore, the software
programming is intuitive making it easy to produce programs for production.”
Larry Lynott, Celeritive Technologies’ vice president of sales, reveals,
“Although VoluMill was developed primarily for the metal manufacturing
market segment, this agreement introduces our innovative technology to
woodworking and aluminum sheet metal fabrication, which demonstrates that a
good technology often translates from one industry to another.”
