Manufacturing & Production - CAM

Pro/ENGINEER Production solutions enable manufacturers to create tooling, NC tool paths, and inspection programs in parallel with product design work. Learn about topics for leveraging digital models for production including:

Production
  • Tooling design, development, and analysis
  • Tool path creation
  • NC simulation, verification, optimization, and post-processing

Demos

  • 2 Axis Turning Demonstration
    In this demonstration of Pro/NC turning, you’ll see that Pro/NC is easy to use, fully associative, has unmatched capability for creating programs on families of parts, and allows programming to different dimensional tolerance limits. The demonstration follows an actual customer scenario to create a 2-axis lathe program on a cast part.
  • 3 Axis Milling in Pro/ENGINEER Demonstration
    This is a Pro/ENGINEER 3 Axis Milling demonstration. A product expert takes you through the simple process of utilizing the powerful 3 Axis capabilities in Pro/ENGINEER and the benefits inherent to parametric, associative models created in Pro/ENGINEER. Vericut is also shown for part verification and machining visualization.
  • 5 Axis Milling in Pro/ENGINEER Demonstration
    This is a 5 Axis Milling in Pro/ENGINEER Demonstration. A product expert takes you through the process of utilizing the 5 Axis capabilities in Pro/ENGINEER and the benefits inherent to parametric, associative models created in Pro/ENGINEER.
  • Pro/ENGINEER NC Sheetmetal Demonstration
    This demonstration is an introduction to the Pro/ENGINEER NC Sheetmetal application and shows how the product automatically creates and optimizes toolpaths using standard and form tools.
  • Pro/TOOLMAKER 2 1/2 Dimensional Part Demonstration
    This is a demonstration of a 2 1/2 Dimensional part machined in Pro/TOOLMAKER.
  • Pro/TOOLMAKER Core Machining Demonstration
    This is a demonstration of Pro/TOOLMAKER being used to machine a core.
  • Pro/TOOLMAKER Mold Cavity Demonstration
    This demonstration provides a look at machining a mold cavity inside Pro/TOOLMAKER.
  • Pro/VERIFY Demonstration
    Pro/VERIFY provides the capability to verify finished machined and molded parts. Combined with a laser scanner to generate a point-cloud, Pro/VERIFY allows the user to input the point-cloud and superimpose it on the original 3-D model. The system provides fit and orientation tools and then outputs deviation information graphically and in report form. These techniques confirm part and process accuracy, improving quality and identifying process deficiencies.
  • Tool Design Option Demonstration
    This demonstration shows why the Pro/ENGINEER Tool Design Option is the industry standard for mold tooling design. A core, cavity, and slider are created for a design part using the software’s automated parting line and splitting capabilities. The mold design seamlessly updates when large changes are made to the design part. Finally, the mold base library is used to begin the design of the full tool assembly and the detailed production drawings.
  • What's New for NC and Tooling in Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0
    This demonstration takes you through the new features and functions available for NC and Tooling in the Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 release and includes a presentation and demonstration.
  • Webcast Replay-High Speed Machining & Custom Prototype Manufacturing
    This webcast takes an in-depth look at how high-speed machining technology significantly aids in the success of companies that specialize in toolmaking, prototype-manufacture, and other precision machining applications.
