Is your company one of the many who are machining aluminum or non-ferrous die cast parts? If so, odds are that you are using general purpose horizontal / vertical machining centers or light duty drill tap centers to produce those parts. While these machines are traditional solutions, they are not ideally...

NURBS is not a new term. It is an acronym for "Non-Uniform Rational B Spline" and is basically an accurate way to define a free-form curve. CAD-CAM systems have used NURBS for many years to define curves.   GE FANUC NURBS Interpolation NURBS...

In this second part of this series, actual cutting tests will be highlighted and demonstrated to compare 2+3 vs. 5 axis machining. Makino will discuss why 2+3 machining might be a better fit than full 5-axis processing for your die/mold manufacturing operation. Learn about the superior programming capabilities,...
