ESPRIT 2013, the latest in CAM software
ESPRIT® 2013, the latest version of the innovative computer-aided-manufacturing (CAM) software developed by DP Technology Corp, was exhibited at the Okuma Technology Showcase, held at the Partners in THINC and Okuma Headquarters in Charlotte, NC.
Visitors received one-on-one demonstrations and presentations of features available within the latest generation of the software. ESPRIT offers upgrades in all machining disciplines, including enhancements to turning, milling, mill-turn and wire EDM cycles.
New to ESPRIT 2013, the patent-pending ProfitMilling strategy for 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-axis roughing cycles allows customers to remove more material in a shorter amount of time. ProfitMilling is a high-speed roughing cycle that allows you to take a significantly deeper cut of the tool and increase the cutting feed. Rather than controlling just one parameter, ProfitMilling monitors several vital cutting and machine characteristics.
The ProfitMilling toolpath manages chip load and side-cutter force in the calculation of toolpath while keeping the engagement angle and material removal rate within a specific range. It also incorporates dynamic feed rate changes throughout the toolpath and takes advantage of toolpath optimisation for specific machine capabilities.
