Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Manufacturing show supports knowledge sharing from
Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Show, which we summarised at the time by saying "The forthcoming UK annual Southern Manufacturing Show offers a free seminar programme that provides an accessible focal point of enginering/manufacturing
knowledge sharing".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release CAD/CAM software machining options extended from
Delcam: "Latest CAD/CAM software machining options will be demonstrated at the UK's 2008 Autosport Engineering exhibition and include port machining and composite component manufacture".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Sescoi International
concerning its Autosport - WorkNC, MyWorkPLAN and WorkPLAN
- take a look at NC programming gives autosport fast response
which says: "NC programming software is widely used by motorsport industry Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs to help them respond to the rapidly changing demands inherent within the sector".
Take a look also at the news release from NC Engineering, CNC sliding head lathe speeds changeovers,
as well as Mill/turn centre shows complex component machining from Yamazaki Mazak UK,
and Machining software speeds cylinder heads from Delcam.
