TDM Systems names Jean-Paul Seuren vice president of global sales and marketing.

With the newly integrated textures, CAD models appear more detailed and realistic. This look increases the realistic impression of the 3D objects and enhances the design aesthetically. This is particularly interesting for those areas where a realistic representation is important, such as presentations, catalogs or virtual reality.

NUM's power skiving option provides the enabling technology for CNC machine tool companies to address a key market opportunity in the nascent compact gearbox manufacturing industry. It is now possible to create an entirely new generation of gear production automation that offers combined hobbing and skiving capabilities on a single machine.

The new CAMWorks wire EDM module also includes enhanced feature recognition for non-planar geometry. Instead of the user needing to project the geometry for the top and bottom of the part and create 2D sketches, the new wire EDM software uses geometry directly from the solid model to construct and create the correct top and bottom profiles automatically.

Renishaw supports all of its probing hardware with easy to use software that compliments the full potential of machine tool probing applications.

The X-86m2 series in the ultra-compact M.2 2242 form factor and the CFast™ card F-86 show off their full performance capabilities, especially as robust boot and application drives, and set themselves apart with a perfectly coordinated feature set.

The holy grail of tool management is the integration of tool storage, tool data transfer and tool condition monitoring, but many ways exist to keep machines running.

Hermle AG's new automated HS flex heavy pallet-handling system has what it takes to handle large pallets.

Eriez, a supplier of separation technologies, expanded its Wager Road manufacturing and testing facility that will support Eriez' strategic growth initiatives for global research and development, aftermarket repair and testing, and recycling equipment technology.

Designed to remove complexity, REcreate provides a single working environment from scan to manufacturable CAD model. The user can prepare CAD models and drawings from any point cloud data. Its fully featured CAD tool suite enables users to create complete and manufacturable CAD models as well as 2D engineering drawings.

Common line cutting which allows operators to cut two or more parts so that they share at least one common line with one another. This provides greater material utilization and better consumable life. Costing for parts, nests, and jobs to include factors such as consumable wear, machine operating cost, labor costs, electricity, etc.

With AOT onboard, a highly-intuitive graphical user interface provides step-by-step instructions that guide operators through the process of selecting material type, tooling, processes, and cutting motions for the desired part design. From there, the system then simulates the cutting process in a 3D graphical view before exporting the NC (numeric control) program.
