Overcoming Injection Mold Machining Challenges with ICAM’s Post & Simulation

Over the coming months we'll be looking at how our range of CNC manufacturing software helps our users get more out of their CNC machines. To do so, we'll be visiting clients in a variety of industries, beginning this week with the mold makers at Groupe GLP Hi-Tech. We'll be speaking with Robert Leblanc, Chief Technical Officer [...]

Why You’re Spending Too Much Time on Machine Code – And Always Have been

For as long as there have been CNC machines, there has been Machine Code. Over the years it has come in many shapes, sizes and flavours, but the bottom line remains: you need a way to feed precise instructions to your machine in return for reliable and repeatable behaviour. But in order to quench manufacturers' [...]
