Delcam to Show Latest PartMaker SwissCAM at SIMODEC
Delcam's PartMaker Division will demonstrate the latest release of its SwissCAM software for programming Swiss-type lathes at the SIMODEC exhibition to be held from 4th to 8th March at the heart of the French Alps in la Roche sur Foron. The SIMODEC trade fair, which is held every two years, brings together manufacturers and suppliers in the screw-cutting sector at the heart of the Arve Valley - the world's highest geographical concentration of screw-cutting companies.
This year is the first time that PartMaker SwissCAM will be demonstrated at SIMODEC. PartMaker SwissCAM is a market leading system for programming Swiss-type lathes supporting all Swiss machine models from builders such as Citizen, Star, Tornos, Maier and many others. While PartMaker has been the standard for CAM software for programming multi-axis multi-spindle machines for years in the United States, its popularity in Europe has grown sharply since its acquisition by Delcam in 2006. PartMaker is available in a wide variety of European languages and supported by Delcam offices throughout Europe, allowing the best software application for automating the programming of multi-axis lathes to be married with the best CAM software support organization in Europe.
The newest version of SwissCAM features a wide range of improvements, including enhancements to the system's unique synchronisation functionality, improvements in 3D simulation, CAD drafting, the handling of solid models and more optimized 3D milling operations. A number of new options have been added including the Full Machine Simulation module, which allows users to view a photo-realistic 3D model of the machine for which they are programming, and the PartMaker Documentation Wizard, which allows the user to create, preview and print documents incorporating multiple views.
