Sandvik Coromant and Autodesk agree on cooperation
Sandvik Coromant has announced a new partnership with Autodesk. The long-term cooperation is intended to improve computer-aided manufacturing (CAM).

Version 2021.2 of the Hypermill CAD/CAM suite from Open Mind brings easier operation, improved machining strategies and additional options for data communication.

Martin Dreher, Managing Director of Drehertec and an expert in turning machines, on the importance of automated CNC machines and digital twins.
The Paul Kauth Group operates its own toolmaking facility in Frittlingen. This is where progressive tools with a length of up to 6 m and up to 50 stations are produced, which would be impossible to manufacture without a CAM system.
CAM data management and centralized digital tool data management enable metalworking companies to secure valuable manufacturing expertise for the future.

At the METAV in Düsseldorf, visitors to encee CAD/CAM-Systeme GmbH in Hall 15 on Stand F37 will have the opportunity to experience metalworking in a completely new form: 3D printing of metal rods will be demonstrated there on a Studio System from the American start-up Desktop Metal.

The information process on the store floor must also be digitalized to ensure secure communication. The aim is to achieve end-to-end transparency of all production data and to safeguard product quality and production expertise. Coscom has developed a central database management system for this purpose, which is used as a central "data hub" along the entire CNC process chain.
