The look, feel and function can be optimally tested on a first physical component. Technical prototypes play the central role when it comes to assessing the suitability for use in production.
hyperCAD®-S features an integrated interface package for importing, analysing and processing both simple and complex models or prototypes with ease. The CAD software from OPEN MIND also takes existing product manufacturing information into account. hyperCAD®-S offers intuitive filter and selection functions for convenient and fast NC programming.
Direct modelling in hyperCAD®-S makes it easy to make changes to the component and thus create multiple variants. The shape and position of selected surfaces or features can be easily changed. Direct modelling also works with imported external data.
hyperMILL® CAM software allows the user to quickly achieve the best milling results. Numerous efficient milling strategies make it possible to produce top-quality prototypes and master forms with the optimal surface finish; time-consuming post-processing is no longer necessary.
5-axis simultaneous strategies are just as easy to program as 3D strategies. The use of short, stable tools associated with these strategies lead to maximum process reliability in the production of complex workpiece geometries. Innovative blending cycles for finishing and rest material machining help to avoid visible transitions and edges. The result: flawless surfaces.
Performance Package: HPC roughing
Are you looking to quickly create a model or prototype from an unmachined part? That’s easy with the high-performance milling strategies from hyperMILL®. Trochoidal toolpaths guarantee reliable, tool-friendly machining with high stock removal rates, regardless of whether 2.5D, 3D, or 5-axis machining is required.
hyperMILL® offers a reliable simulation feature, including collision control and avoidance, to ensure consistent and dependable modelling and prototyping. hyperMILL® VIRTUAL Machining features an NC code-based simulation that incorporates the geometries and kinematics of all possible components of the manufacturing process. Users are shown the exact machine movements during the simulation that will be performed later on the machine tool.
Stewart Palmer talks about their CNC machined downhill bike and success with CAM software hyperMILL®.
This is an machining example of a cavity programmed with hyperMILL® and it´s MAXX Machining package. MAXXimum performance with the high performance roughing and finishing module. Using 5-axis technology and performance tooling like barrel cutters this demo was done in a short time with a high surface quality. The demo part was machined during a workshop in cooperation with Makino.
