The Rapid Machining Forum will review the fast emerging area of manufacturing parts using advanced CAM software and milling techniques.
Leading users and writers of CAM software and hardware technology will demonstrate real examples of parts machined directly from the raw material.
The forum provides the platform for milling techniques to go head-to-head with RP and M (rapid prototyping and rapid manufacturing) additive techniques and will prove that rapid manufacturing can be subtractive too.
During each day of TCT, an afternoon seminar session will feature the following presentations.
* 14.00 - 14.20: Session Introduction from GTMA.
* 14.20 - 14.40: Rapid Manufacturing by Machining, Peter Dickin, Delcam.
