The Face Mill Cycle, has better toolpath control and can potentially increase machine tool longevity The cycles’ NC output can be configured to support Hexagon’s existing m&h probing macros, as well as many other popular probing systems for different controls and native probing languages of Siemens and Heidenhain controls.įollowing specific customer requests, six new or updated commands have been introduced into the Inspection operation, including the ability to globally edit existing features, and to specifically control the layout of both Linear and Rectangular Array features.

Most of this is put down to improvements in the software’s architecture, which give a reported average time saving of 70 per cent on checking toolpaths with Machine Simulator when the software is initially launched.Ī radical overhaul of the probing functionality in EdgeCAM 20201 revolves around 8 new cycles, which deliver support for programming a variety of on-machine probing cycles. When using the Profiling cycle’s Undercut function, savings of between 40- and 60 per cent have been recorded in Hexagon’s tests, depending on the part’s size and complexity. “Numerous benchmark tests show a 30 per cent improvement in calculation times, compared to the previous version,” claims Miguel Johann, EdgeCAM machining market and product manager. Two of the most popular machining cycles in the software – Roughing and Profiling – benefit from improvements to the software’s multi-threading technology algorithms.Īs a result, EdgeCAM‘s high speed Waveform Roughing strategy is now faster when generating toolpaths for both solid and wireframe components. EDGECAM also gives us a much needed Lathe / Lathe with live tooling solutions to offer to our existing customer base as well as taking us into new markets.EdgeCAM CAD/CAM 2021 software from Hexagon, has launched with claims of boosted customer productivity through lower computer processing time, and faster toolpaths.Ī number of these productivity-boosts are said to have been achieved through reducing calculation time by enhancing EdgeCAM 2021’s parallel processing capability. "By adding the EDGECAM product this will allow TST to offer a "World Class" Solution to the production machining industry. “We are positive that this same level of customer service and satisfaction will now extend into the EDGECAM family of products” says Jim Kesteloot. TST has an extensive user base that is benefiting from this expertise and experience. TST has built its business around making sure its users are 100% knowledgeable on the products they invest in consistently analyzing and updating software solutions. We are very excited about their knowledge of the manufacturing industry and their ability to provide a total design to manufacturing solution.” EDGECAM complements TST’s existing Vero specialty software offerings, as it will provide additional solutions for the milling and turning production markets. With 145 years of combined experience, the team at TST has engineers who understand their clients’ business through experience.Ĭommenting on the new partnership, EDGECAM Channel Manger Domenic Lanzillotta says, “We are pleased to have TST Tooling Software represent EDGECAM. TST, founded in 2001, is currently the North American Master Distributor of VISI by Vero Software, a leading CAD/CAM/CAE software developer and EDGECAM’s parent company.
