HCL CAMWorks 2021Plus is one of the first integrated CAM systems to support Sandvik Coromant's PrimeTurning, which uses CoroTurn Prime Type-A and Type-B tools in conjunction with unique toolpaths to achieve increased feeds and speeds, shorter cycle times and longer tool life. PrimeTurning offers the flexibility for turning operations in all directions.

Laser printed data matrix codes can track ten billion tools that in turn can generate huge amount of insight into how our products are used.

Element Six's roots go back to 1946 as the industrial diamond division of DeBeers, and since 1959, has been focused to become the global leader in manufacturing synthetic diamond and superabrasive materials.

CNC Software Inc., Helical Solutions LLC and Makino Inc. — a software developer, cutting tool maker and machine builder, respectively — share the results of their joint R&D project that began with an email introducing a new high-efficiency six-flute endmill with a chipbreaker.

Sandvik Coromant's CoroPlus MachiningInsights platform is an expansion of the company's CoroPlus suite of connectivity software. The platform gives manufacturers greater visibility of CNC machine tools and machining processes, and to provide the tools needed to analyze, identify, and eliminate common sources of downtime and inefficiency.

Resulting in simplified programming and increased process reliability, hyperMILL® VIRTUAL Machining NC code-based machine simulation has also been enhanced. Within the VIRTUAL Machining Optimizer module which links individual part programs with smooth and safe connections, the cutter is able to remain close to the workpiece, violations of the axis limitations are now detected and movement sequences are optimized accordingly.

Reducing time spent setting tools can increase profits.

As more shops seek the benefits of a single setup, multiaxis cutting strategy, Mastercam 2022 adds new techniques and strategies such as the Unified Multiaxis toolpath which allows you to select multiple pieces of input geometry to generate the toolpath pattern. Using those geometry choices, the toolpath picks the best algorithm to calculate the path.

International kitchen cabinet hardware manufacturer uses CGTech's VERICUT to train machining apprentices.

CNC Software Inc., developer of Mastercam CAD/CAM software, has become a member of the Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center Research and Development (OMIC R&D).

This release features several improvements inspired by our user base. The undo feature was one of the top suggestions we received from customers, so we knew we had to get it into this release and we're super excited to see it come to fruition.
