Third Wave Systems, IMS Software Partner for Toolpath Interpretation Project
December 1, 2014
Third Wave Systems, a provider of validated material physics-based modeling products and services, and IMS Software, a provider of post-processing products, have partnered to provide a capability to model new machines within Production Module, Third Wave Systems' machining modeling and optimization product.
Third Wave Systems will integrate IMS Software's extensive capability to interpret CNC machining toolpaths for turning and milling machines, including multi-axis milling and the latest in machine controllers.
"We are excited to include this capability that allows Third Wave Systems customers to model and optimize the most complex machined components using Production Module," said Kerry Marusich, Third Wave Systems President. "This new capability allows customers to model forces, stresses and temperatures in difficult to machine metals on more components than ever before."
Production Module will retain the same functionality and core capability as before, but through the partnership with IMS Software, Third Wave Systems users will have the ability to model more machines and optimize a larger number of parts. Third Wave Systems will embed IMS software within Production Module for improved toolpath interpretation so Third Wave Systems customers can model more machines with better results, have more accurate simulations and a faster set-up time. "By modeling and optimizing more components with Production Module, customers will be able to create an even larger and faster improvement in profitability for their machined components," said a company spokesperson.
"The synergy between our products will benefit customers immediately, and the alignment of our respective development strategies will deliver even greater capabilities in the future," said Dan Wrenn, President and Co-Founder of IMS Software.
