Flexible PartMaker Version 2015 to be Previewed
August 1, 2014
PartMaker Version 2015, set for release in the 4th quarter of 2014, features a host of new functionality including enhanced support for the latest breed of multi-function machine tools.
PartMaker Inc., a division of Autodesk's Delcam unit, will unveil its latest version of PartMaker software for programming CNC mills, lathes, wire EDMs, turn-mill centers and Swiss-type lathes at IMTS 2014. Highlights of PartMaker Version 2015 include improved support for multitasking machine tools, more powerful milling and turning functionality and post processing for multi-axis turn-mill centers and Swiss-type lathes, among other productivity enhancements. PartMaker will be exhibited in the booth of its parent company, Delcam.
"PartMaker 2015 extends support of the product's patented approach to programming multitasking machine tools to support today's multi-function machines," said PartMaker Inc. President Hanan Fishman. "Additionally, the power of the machining algorithms driving PartMaker will be enhanced in Version 2015, giving users even more capability while retaining the software's trademark ease of use," said Fishman.
PartMaker 2015 includes specialist support for a new breed of machine tools called vertical mill-turns (VMT). These machine tools provide the turning functionality typically found on a vertical turret lathe (VTL) with that of a 5-axis vertical machining center (VMC). PartMaker 2015 will also offer support for turret based Swiss lathes with programmable B-axis live tooling attachments.
Also headlining PartMaker Version 2015 is post processing for multitasking machine tools. This new approach includes a variety of improvements to the software's post processing technology and new software functionality to help guide users on how to best take advantage of their specific multi-tasking machine tool's unique capabilities.
