CADCAM sheetmetal software has laser improvements
Latest version of sheet metal fabrication CADCAM software includes substantial improvements for laser users, such as skeletal destruction, heat avoidance and common-line cutting.
Flexible CAM add-on reduced part programming time
Limited by the scope of existing CAM functionality in a CNC punch press controller, a stair components maker searched around for a more flexible CAM, which reduced part programming time.
With JOC users can easily insert components into JETCAM Expert's MRP facility, either interactively or fully automatically using Remote Control Processing (RCP).
Support is included for ordering from external systems using fully configurable CSV import facility.
JOC's component ordering system allows users to create and maintain multiple and unlimited order lists, which are completely configurable by the user.
Another major strength of JOC is its reporting engine, which is compatible with existing Jetcam Expert FMS (nest) report files, allowing users to quickly produce reports for existing nests.
A custom report designer program is also available allowing users to design their own reports.
This enables users to choose any report design when producing a nest report.
There is no limit on the number of report designs that can be created.
Commented Martin Bailey, group marketing manager: "Jetcam Orders Controller is suited to small and large production facilities alike.
It is already empowering many facilities around the world to bring order management to the shop floor.
When coupled with Remote Controlled Processing, Jetcam system simply becomes an automated engine for generating complete nests based on the order lists created by the operator, delivering a completely automatic programming process." In addition to the full version a free demonstration version is available.
This fully functional version allows users to implement JOC with their existing Jetcam Expert system to evaluate its usefulness.
The demo version is restricted to allow only one component to be ordered.
Printing of reports is also disabled.
