Open Mind Technologies offers the advanced capabilities of hyperMill 2020.1 CAM software, including powerful 3D and five-axis machining enhancements for complex machining applications, including mold and die. In addition, it increases ease-of-use, overall programming performance and includes key new automation and additive manufacturing strategies. For highly productive rest material machining, the software offers corner rest machining strategies for 3D and five-axis techniques that provide significant benefits in complex machining applications. Enabled by a simple instruction, corners can be machined largely by vertical stroking motions. Then traditional z-level steps can be used to blend with the vertical section and the lower floor area.
HyperMill Maxx machining finishing module is the CAM programming source enabling the use of conical barrel cutters to reduce cycle times over 90% and is ideal for planar, ruled and curved surfaces.
