Q. What trend will drive CAD/CAM Industry in near future? Optimal integration between CAD and CAM as well as a highly reliable Design/Model for Manufacture methodology is what will drive the CAD/CAM industry in the future. It is evident that what is being designed will one day be manufactured; however – inspite of new age technology like 3D printing, there are various aspects regarding volumes, material, resource availability that a manufacturer (usually small & medium businesses) need to consider. Often, there is a disconnect between both these processes which results in inefficient manufacturing. CAD/CAM tools have the ability to tie…

This solid ceramic endmill might feel like plastic in your hand, but its cutting performance in nickel-based alloys is often twenty times that of carbide tools. Most shops evaluate new cutting tools in an effort to reduce machining time, increase tool life, or improve part quality, and sometimes all three. Stellar Precision Components Ltd., a Tier II aerospace supplier in Jeanette, Pennsylvania, did it for an entirely different reason. “We’d just taken an order for some Inconel parts,” says production manager Edward Frieze. “None of us were really worried at that point about tool life or making a profit on…

According to a report, analysts forecast the global machine tool market to grow at a rate of 6.33% over the period 2013-2018. A machine tool is a machine for shaping or machining metal or other rigid materials, usually by cutting, boring, grinding, shearing, or other forms of deformation. Machine tools employ some sort of tool that does the cutting or shaping. All machine tools have some means of constraining the work piece and provide a guided movement of the parts of the machine. Thus the relative movement between the work piece and the cutting tool (which is called the tool…
