Full CAM capabilities

Designed to make programming turning processes much easier and faster, hyperMILL Version 2022.1 offers two new feature types. Component areas for turning or plunging are reliably recognised, structured and displayed. During this process, hyperMILL automatically divides the recognised features into several areas that can be turned, faced, groove machined or machined with a combination of these technologies. This saves users considerable time in contour selection and programming while giving them full access to all recognised contours.
 
The latest version of hyperMILL also offers convenient programming for production on turning centres with a main and counter spindle. The machining jobs are simply programmed under the ‘Main Spindle’ and ‘Counter Spindle’ containers, which assigns them to the respective machining side. The component or bar material, with or without parting, is transferred with the new transfer job. NC output from the main and opposite sides and component transfer is realised in one end-to-end NC program with a machine model and a post-processor. DMG MORI CTX machines with a Siemens control are supported with this function in release 2022.1 and more manufacturers and machine types will follow imminently.
 
Open Mind will also showcase its automated program generation with the hyperMILL AUTOMATION Center. The hyperMILL AUTOMATION Center allows users to automate the job list creation process as well as the selection and positioning of clamping devices. Furthermore, a uniform process can be defined for all programmers. Stand 17-440
