Great interest in turn-milling and automation with hyperMILL®
OPEN MIND at EMO 2025
15.10.2025 — OPEN MIND draws a positive conclusion after its appearance at EMO in Hanover. The live demonstration of the turning and milling production of a workpiece inspired by aerospace components on the Mazak INTEGREX i-100H S turning and milling center attracted a lot of attention. The many components on display from a wide range of industries and applications demonstrated the breadth of hyperMILL® technologies and sparked discussions – including about automation in CAM programming.
Specific machining strategies, as demonstrated by the hyperMILL® TURNING Solutions, were often the starting point for conversation, but visitors to the booth were also very interested in advanced technologies such as the hyperMILL® AUTOMATION Center and the use of digital twins with hyperMILL® VIRTUAL Machining. Many users are looking for ways to further optimize their processes and were impressed by these two technology packages from the CAD/CAM suite.
Live machining on the Mazak machine sparked discussions about combined turning and milling.

Connected processes
"Smart, connected, and integrated processes continue to be a very important topic for our users, as this is where digitalization unfolds its cost- and time-saving potential," explains Claudio Jorio, Sales Director DACH & Global Reseller at OPEN MIND Technologies AG. With hyperMILL® and Hummingbird-MES, we are ideally positioned to offer companies innovative solutions for networked process environments that increase production efficiency.
Hummingbird-MES was also an important topic at the OPEN MIND booth.
At four workstations, visitors could experience demonstrations of hyperMILL® functionalities and the Hummingbird Manufacturing Execution System. OPEN MIND positioned its hyperMILL® and Hummingbird-MES as central components for the digitalization of process chains in the context of connected manufacturing.
The international character of EMO was constantly evident at the OPEN MIND booth.
