Solutionware has introduced its latest development to enable users to reuse existing 3D Mazatrol programs on later control generations.
MazaCAM can now take 3D Mazatrol programs (for example Ruled-surface, Rotated-surface, Parallel-Surface, Normal-surface) and convert them between the Mazatrol controls.
It can convert a Mazak M2 3D Mazatrol program to a Mazak Fusion-640M control.
This conversion also works from the Fusion-640M down to the M2 and between the M32 and M-Plus.
Test sites report a 99 per cent programming time saving, going from three days of work down to a few minutes.
