Auto Racing-World Manufacturer Cuts New Path to Profitability with Automated Metal Cutting
The world’s top engine builders and auto enthusiasts rely on Borla Performance Industries exhaust systems, but parts were taking too long to program and produce. Switching from CNC machining to automated plasma cutting is drastically reducing cycle times.
Ultimate Nesting for Punching Machines
The latest RADAN software for sheet metal fabrication provides savings on raw materials and quicker nesting production. Users can produce more parts per sheet, so it takes less time to produce a batch – saving about 50 minutes per day for 80 nests.
Algorithm Ends Collisions, Damaged Cutting Heads, and Shutdowns
Lantek’s Intelligent Collision Avoidance (ICA) detects when sheet metal contours or scrap pieces pose a risk of interfering with the cutting head. And when collisions are averted, fiber laser cutting productivity soars.
How Hybrid Computing Harnesses the Cloud for Machinery Data
The future of Industry 4.0 will change how computer systems are structured, and the future is here with Edge computing. This hybrid technology manages the enormous volume of data generated from CNC machines to produce useful and accessible information that optimizes factory operations.
Software Equips Remote Team for 3D Collaboration
Lattice Technology offers companies that design and manufacture products a way to set up remote workers with tools that maximize productivity and ensure quality. Unlike the native CAD system, rife with limitations, Design Review is specifically intended for use by the entire, extended team.
CAD Plug-In with Milling and Turning Modules
MecSoft’s AlibreCAM 2020 integrates with Alibre Design and Atom 3D from Alibre Inc. With just one interface to learn, users will experience many feature improvements in 2 ½, 3, 4 & 5 Axis machining, as well as a number of productivity and user interface enhancements.
Simplified CAD Models for Digital Factory Planning
Reading many common 3D formats, CoreTechnologie’s 3D_Evolution Simplifier reduces the number of elements in large CAD models to enable smooth, fast processing.
Hexagon to Acquire CAE Software Maker Romax Technology
Adding Romax’s expertise in electromechanical drivetrain design and simulation to its Manufacturing Intelligence division will, says Hexagon, enhance its Smart Factory Solutions.
Access Complete Product Data – Any Size or CAD System
XVL Web3D Manager offers access to gigabyte-size 3D models using only a web browser.
Enhanced Nesting Software Imports Numerous File Formats
Local CAD installation isn’t required for importing files with SigmaNEST 20. The latest release of SigmaTek’s flagship product offers many new features that focus on improving user experience, material utilization, and data management.
10 WAYS TO DECREASE COSTS BY INCREASING PLATE UTILIZATION
Every extra part wrung from the same piece of raw and remnant material is money in your pocket. Here’s how to significantly increase earnings.
Subscription Pricing Introduced For Nesting Software
Hypertherm offers purchasing alternative on ProNest LT for use on smaller CNC cutting tables.
