Mould maker has no crashes with WorkNC CAM
Mould and die maker said it does not have to worry about a crash with WorkNC CAM as it is very reliable and its performance is superior to other CAM systems it has used.
The software's intelligent machining technology, automated toolpaths and short calculation times make it possible to achieve safe and efficient cutterpaths with the minimum of effort, crucial factors for success in this industry.
WorkNC G3 is the 'third generation' of Sescoi's software and features a single ergonomic interface, which combines design, analysis, programming and verification into one environment.
The new software has a short learning curve thanks to its tree structure, easy to interpret icons and single screen intuitive graphics.
New algorithms in WorkNC G3 have added to the fluidity of its toolpaths, enhancing high speed machining through trochoidal movements and smooth transitions, said Sescoi to manufacturingtalk.
Developments in 5-axis machining within the latest version offer new cycles for blade and impeller cutting, and more options for Auto 5, Sescoi's unique process for automatically converting 3-axis movements into 5-axis toolpaths.
The new WorkPLAN Enterprise ERP and the MyWorkPLAN job management systems will also be demonstrated on the stand.
These systems bring capability without complexity to custom manufacturers, enabling them to produce accurate quotations, monitor sales, control production schedules and the progress of projects, keep track of costs, and ensure that quality targets are maintained.
Both systems will provide live reports on key performance indicators, helping companies to maximize profits and productivity by improved utilisation of their existing resources.
