Software's material savings are not hot air
At Cameron Balloons the use of Alphacam nesting and manufacturing software has not only dramatically improved material utilisation, but significantly enhanced production throughput as well.
Licom AlphaCAM is a comprehensive and fully-featured CADCAM system for the Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT platforms with the ability to integrate fully with other systems and connect to any CNC machine type - Wire EDM, Turning, Milling, Punching, Engraving, Routers and all sheet profiling operations - Laser/Flame/Water.
The range has been further enhanced with the addition of a solid machining module AlphaCAM-SW, providing a link to SolidWorks - the solid modelling CAD system - providing a 100% integrated solid modelling and machining package.
All modules are supplied with an integrated Editor with RS232 I/O direct linking to the machine, and post processors are available for every machine tool.
AlphaCAM also incorporates Microsoft VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) and a powerful API (Application Programming Interface) allowing the user to add to, and automate, AlphaCAM processes.
AlphaCAM is also able to import tool geometries from Sandvik's comprehensive tool management system AutoTAS, and convert these into tool geometries for use within AlphaCAM.
With its intuitive user interface and powerful features, designed by engineers for engineers, AlphaCAM is the perfect system for taking your designs from concept to production.
At EuroMold 2000, the emphasis will be on eliminating waste, minimising downtime and maximising production throughput with a particular focus on the growth of 5-axis milling.
