CAM Software Selection Tips, Application Examples and Innovative Additive Turning Capabilities to be Presented
NEEDHAM, MA U.S.A. (September 3, 2020) – OPEN MIND Technologies, a leading developer of CAD/CAM software solutions worldwide, has announced they will be holding a Webinar on September 30th, 2020 at 11:00 a.m. (EDT) where hyperMILL® Product Manager David Bourdages will offer tips on selecting the best CAM Software for the Directed Energy Deposition (DED) process when Additive Manufacturing in 2D, 3D and 5-axis applications. DED application examples will be reviewed such as coatings, repairs, adding features on existing parts, and building entirely new parts on a base substrate.Innovative solutions such as additive turning, enabling tool path generation to build rotational bodies with variational wall thickness, will also be demonstrated.
Computer aided DED processes are evolving, and this webinar is an excellent opportunity to learn more about ways to automate and control the processes through the right CAM software. CAM software selection tips will cover working in a hybrid process including both subtractive and additive manufacturing, maximizing simulation capabilities, and understanding CAM’s role in the 5-axis DED additive manufacturing process. During the webinar, CAM software’s post processor capability to transport the DED technology data to the machine will be presented.
