Description

Fusion 360, along with PowerMill® CAM software, delivers advanced CNC programming solutions tailored for intricate 3- and 5-axis production processes. Users can now benefit from enhanced access to Fusion 360, its collaborative features through Fusion 360 Team, and a suite of advanced manufacturing tools available via Fusion 360 extensions. PowerMill boasts an extensive library of programming strategies that help streamline CNC operations. The software also significantly cuts down on programming times by enabling swift toolpath calculations. Users can simulate, verify, and optimize the movements of CNC machines and industrial robots effectively. With Fusion 360, users are equipped with tools for 3D modeling, generative design, simulation, and electronics, fostering enhanced collaboration and creativity. Additionally, there are specialized modeling tools designed to facilitate the preparation of complex geometries, which ultimately leads to superior CAM programming outcomes. The simulation capabilities further aid in refining plastic part designs and enhancing the mold tools necessary for their production. A prominent manufacturer in the United States leverages a combination of Autodesk Moldflow, PowerMill, and PowerShape to design and produce top-tier injection molds, illustrating the practical applications of these integrated technologies in achieving high-quality manufacturing results. This integration not only boosts efficiency but also elevates the overall quality of the finished products.

Description

Predator PDM, a paperless manufacturing-driven Production Data Management software, organizes and controls CNC Programs and Robot Programs. It also manages PLC Programs, CMM Programs and safety procedures. Predator PDM supports paperless shopfloor operation through integration with DNC and CNC Editor, Virtual CNC Editor, MDC, Tracker, and MDC. Predator PDM offers the right balance between flexibility, control, and accountability to make it easier to adhere to international standards such as AS9100 or CFR21 Part 11. Predator PDM is appreciated by quality personnel as it helps to ensure that quality priorities and change management are followed. This will help to avoid FDA, FAA, and DOD audit findings. Manufacturing Engineering and CNC programming personnel will enjoy the daily benefits of visualizing the manufacturing process and revision control of manufacturing files.
