GROUNDBREAKING AND FIELD-TESTED

Open Mind Technologies AG drives forward automation and the integration of additive manufacturing with the latest 2020.2 release of its hyperMILL® CAD/CAM suite. The developers at Open Mind have also implemented numerous functions to further simplify everyday machining tasks. hyperMILL® 2020.2 highlights include new strategies for the machining of cutting edges, upgrades for mill/turning, parametric design in hyperCAD®-S and the ‘hyperMILL® AUTOMATION Center Advanced’.

Plunge-milling cycles have been added to the 3D and 5-axis strategies for the machining of cutting edges. The material can be removed by plunging with 3-axis or 5-axis movements. The plunge-milling process reduces vibration for surface edges with steep walls, thus improving the surface finish. Any rest material machining using a smaller tool is easily calculated automatically from the previous job. With 5-axis machining, you can also reach undercut areas, such as for cutting edges. The tilted tool is specified by the lateral inclination and in order to optimally adapt the retract movement from the component, you can specify both a distance, circular or linear movement profile.
