Delcam to hold CADCAM workshop during CIMES exhibition

Delcam will host a workshop on CADCAM developments during CIMES (China International Machine Tool Exhibition) in Beijing from 18th to 22nd June. The workshop will include demonstrations of new functionality in Delcam's PowerSHAPE Pro CAD software, in the PowerMILL CAM system and in the PowerINSPECT inspection software.

The 2014 R2 release of PowerSHAPE Pro includes a range of new functionality for the design of products and tooling. In particular, the new version introduces powerful new tools to make re-engineering complex parts from scanned data faster and easier, plus an option to merge disjointed faces within a solid and so make direct modelling operations more robust.

By offering a combination of solid, surface and direct modelling, together with reverse engineering functionality, PowerSHAPE Pro provides the most comprehensive range of design techniques available in a single CAD program. Having all the different technologies in the same package reduces the need to transfer data between multiple programs and so streamlines the whole product development process. At the same time, the combination of quick and easy direct modelling options, together with powerful and flexible surface modelling, makes PowerSHAPE Pro the perfect choice for design for manufacture.

The 2014R2 release of PowerMILL CAM software includes new options for high-speed and five-axis machining of parts and tooling with unprecedented speed and accuracy. New simulation and customisation tools, plus greater editing flexibility, give even greater opportunities to minimise programming times and reduce manufacturing times.

A series of improvements to Delcam's unique Vortex high-efficiency area-clearance strategy is also included in the new release. Vortex gives fast, safe metal removal by allowing solid carbide tooling to cut with its full flute length so minimising machining times. At the same time, Vortex toolpaths use a controlled engagement angle between the cutter and the part, and so give a more consistent volume-removal rate and feedrate, minimising wear on the cutter.

PowerINSPECT 2014 features a new interface with new icons that makes the software more intuitive and even easier to use. Other enhancements in the new version include the ability to create compound items and so speed up and simplify repetitive measurements.

The new interface has been developed to further improve the ease of use that has been central to PowerINSPECT becoming the world's leading hardware-independent inspection software. Over the last few releases, the software has seen a significant increase in the range of measurements that it can make. The software can now be used to take all types of simple measurements and to inspect a growing variety of geometric features, as well as offering more tools for analysing complex 3D surfaces. In addition to making it easier to negotiate the greater range of options, the interface features freshly-designed icons, which give a cleaner look and feel to the software.
