Project Details

When I got out in to the workforce in the 1990's my original CAM experience was with Merry Mechanization SMP for use with turret punches, though I had some opportunities to use it with a laser and plasma cutter. From 2012 forward my CAM experiences would open up to machining and turning centers using CAMWorks and ProCAM II (transmission parts - Okumas) and GibbsCAM (heatsinks - Haas and Milltronics). The most unique experience was using elumatec's eluCad for the SBZ 151 5-axis beam cutter.

Tooling layout, tooling interference zones, and clamp locations for a sheet to be run on a Strippit turret punch.

Plasma cutter nest example.
The company I was with from 2017-20 specialized in heat sinks, cold plates, etc. While my main responsibility was engineering, I did get to program occasionally with GibbsCAM. When doing the ends of a heat sink extrusion make sure to conventional mill instead of climb mill!
HCL CAMWorks promotional video. I had the opportunity to use this during 2012-13 primarily for transmission parts (sprockets, pulleys, etc.).
