Enterprises in need of computer-aided manufacturing software to reduce engineering and production costs
About MAX-PAC
Concepts NREC’s MAX-PAC™ family of CAM software provides optimal cutter-path solutions for turbomachinery components by offering users several cutting strategies that can reduce engineering costs as well as production costs. MAX-PAC is available in any combination of modules to suit part geometry requirements for flank milling of ruled-surface blading, point milling of arbitrary-surface blading, point milling of integrally shrouded impellers, or milling of single blades. MAX-PAC has long been recognized as the best CAM software for 5-axis milling of turbomachinery impellers, blisks, and rotors, and enjoys a strong worldwide reputation with manufacturers, job shops, and 5-axis machine-tool companies. Expertise built into these specialized tools incorporates methodologies protected by three separate patents. Compared to other CAM tools, MAX-PAC addresses only turbomachinery, and as a result, it is faster to learn, easier to use, and requires less programming and machining time.

CAD6industrie
CAD6industrie is the comprehensive 2D/3D CAD/CAM solution for industrial use. In addition to to the full range of functions of CAD6studio, including SMART2D Technology, it also contains a CAM plug-in and a universal, script-based post-processor for the flexible and efficient generation of CNC data for machine controllers.
The CAM plug-in supports the following machining procedures: milling, drilling, turning, water jet cutting, laser cutting, as well as cutting, plotting, and positioning.
Commands like milling cutter compensation, pocket milling, milling order control, milling time calculation and a graphical 3D preview let you create drawings that are directly milled later. Extensive tool and machine settings, plus output of custom commands (such as cycles or sub-programs) by means of symbols, give you the complete control over what the post-processors finally output to the machine.
All programs of the CAD6 series are 100% data-compatible.

hyperMILL
NC programmers use CAM software to create the control code for CNC machine tools. This ensures that a real component can be generated from a digital CAD model as an exact copy. CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) manufacturing technologies such as milling, turning and drilling are used to transform a digital model into a machined component. A CNC machine tool created the component from a stock model, cutters, and NC programs. Important business objectives are to produce components economically, accurately and on time. The strengths and advantages of a high-end CAM software application such as hyperMILL® from OPEN MIND become particularly apparent when complex components need to be manufactured. hyperMILL® NC users have access to a broad range of machining strategies, from 2.5D and 3D strategies and HPC solutions, to 5-axis machining and mill turning. Special applications for impellers and blisks, turbine blades, tube machining and tire machining round out the range of services.
