Celeritive Signs License Agreement with Missler for TopSolid Integration



Celeritive Technologies, Inc., developer of VoluMill, has announced that it has signed a license agreement with Missler Software, the developers of TopSolid headquartered in Evry, France. Under terms of the agreement, Missler Software will integrate Celeritive's toolpath engine VoluMill into Missler's TopSolid CAD/CAM product and offer VoluMill 3-axis applications as an option upgrade, which is designed to provide improved rough milling productivity.

"VoluMill's technology generates toolpaths that produce a consistent material removal rate," said a company spokesperson. "Their smooth, flowing motion establishes and maintains ideal milling conditions in any part shape. Reduced forces on the spindle and cutting tool enable machining hardware to be safely utilized to its full capabilities. Uniform chip formation and excellent heat dissipation result in reduced cycle times and extended cutting tool life.

"This software investment was essential," said Jean-Pierre Lugarini, Technical Director of CAM Technologies at Missler Software. "Although TopSolid CAM has a long list of features for metal removal (trochoidal, cutter overlap bigger than tool radius), we needed a technology that provided deep depths of cut in difficult to machine materials such as Inconel or titanium. The integration of VoluMill allows us to satisfy all our customers currently subject to these types of constraints."

"We are pleased to add Missler to our list of partnerships around the world," said Terry Sorensen, CEO for Celeritive. "TopSolid has proven to be a critical solution for many of the world's leading manufacturers."
