Camarillo, Calif. — March 19, 2009 — ESPRIT® 2009, created by computer aided manufacturing (CAM) industry leader DP Technology, will be on display in Tokyo, Japan, April 8-11, when the latest version of the company’s software will be exhibited at Intermold 2009.
Considered an opportunity for professional networking, in addition to a showcase of the latest technological advancements, INTERMOLD 2009, the 20th Japan international Die & Mold Technology Exhibition, is expected to be a major hub of activity for those interested in making the most of innovative solutions and machinery.
Intermold participants are encouraged to visit the ESPRIT booth, where representatives knowledgeable about the latest upgrades in the software will perform demonstrations and be available for discussion.
Twenty-two new 5-axis machining strategies have been added to the existing 5-axis functionalities within ESPRIT Mold, an upgrade that translates to even greater machining flexibility and improved cycle times. The new patent-pending FreeForm 5-axis composite machining cycle allows users to independently define machining patterns and tool orientation strategies to be used for creating simultaneous 5-axis toolpaths, and includes 20 different machining strategies (cycles) in one — resulting in a wide range of easily manageable possibilities.
The new ESPRIT composite machining cycle gives users the ability to perform simultaneous 5-axis machining for a wide variety of different parts and industries —including the aerospace, medical and automotive sectors — with one simple user interface.
