OPEN MIND Technologies At Tire Technology Expo 2016 - hyperMILL: CAM Software With A Profile

OPEN MIND Technologies AG, one of the leading CAD/CAM software developers, will present at Booth 6010 at Tire Technology Expo in Hanover, from 16 to 18 February 2016. The tire module of the hyperMILL CAM suite offers a range of special functions for the NC programming of tire molds. At its heart is the Tire Clock, where the tire’s design is defined with all segments, tracks, pitch sequences and pitches.

Automated functions support creating and managing the elements and geometries required for programming. The user can display the suitable geometry for each operation in order to avoid errors. This means that each pitch only has to be programmed once. The new Multiple Track Support function allows a separate pitch sequence to be defined for each track.

Proven and powerful

The hyperMILL MAXX Machining performance package offers three powerful modules that help companies realise significant optimisation potential in roughing, finishing and drilling applications

The roughing module in the performance package offers solutions for high-performance cutting (HPC) with spiral and trochoidal tool movements on prismatic and curved component surfaces. Dynamic feedrate adjustment according to actual cutting conditions ensures milling with the highest possible feedrates at all times. This results in optimal milling paths with maximum material removal and the shortest possible production times. High-speed roughing of both prismatic and curved component faces is supported.

OPEN MIND has made this fast roughing method available for all types of machining from 2D to 5axis simultaneous.
