At Sescoi‘s (Southfield, MI) seminar in Pune, India, last November, more than 200 participants viewed the launch of WorkNC G3, the latest version of Sescoi’s class-leading CAM/CAD software, and WorkPLAN Enterprise, its new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system.
The WorkNC G3 CAM/CAD system features a single unified ergonomic interface that brings together design, analysis, programming, and simulation, adding to the ease of use of the system. This enables engineers to manipulate geometry and toolpaths and arrive at an optimized machining sequence as quickly as possible. New machining algorithms provide smoother cutter trajectories and transitions, speeding up cycle times and improving surface quality and precision.
5-axis toolpaths have been extended in WorkNC G3 to provide dedicated blade and impeller machining routines as well as extra options for the software’s unique Auto 5 technology. Auto 5 automatically translates 3-axis toolpaths into 5-axis, providing significant advantages to toolmakers by reducing the number of electrodes required, machining more of the part in one setting and improving quality by utilizing shorter and more rigid cutters.
WorkPLAN Enterprise is Sescoi’s ERP system for custom manufacturers and includes integrated interfaces with CAM and CAD systems. The system uses a MySQL database and brings the manufacturing capability required by die and moldmakers without the complexity. Its open architecture and drag-and-drop interface simplifies operation, and enables data sharing. Companies installing WorkPLAN Enterprise will benefit from improved control over quotations, production, delivery, quality, and cost and will be able to monitor key performance indicators in real time, enabling them to optimize profit levels.
