We recently had a full class attending our Mastercam Mill Essentials in our Sterling, MA office. The students learned the basics of the Mastercam icon functions, geometry, and toolpath creation that led them through programming many different parts from start to finish. They learned the foundational principles of basic 2½ axis tool paths and reinforced them by programming many real world examples. Here is what a couple of students had to say about their experience: [...]

Manufacturing Making a Comeback in the USA

By |2016-12-15T14:30:58-05:00June 22nd, 2016|Categories: News / Promos|0 Comments

Total output from American manufacturing relative to gross domestic product is back to pre-recession levels, with more than half a million new jobs. Global manufacturing executives predict that by 2020, the U.S. will be the most competitive manufacturing economy in the world. Cheap labor is no longer the most important input for manufacturers. Success in the manufacturing sector can be attributed to the availability of advanced technologies/materials and strong protection of intellectual properties. The U.S. [...]

Make Functional Prototypes More Economically

By |2016-12-15T14:30:58-05:00June 17th, 2016|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, Stratasys|0 Comments

You can make functional prototypes much more economically by using 3D printed injection molds. One of the most dramatic impacts of 3D printing on design and manufacturing is with injection molding. Companies such as Seuffer, Unilever, Arad Group and Whale report significant savings in molding costs and production time by 3D printing injection molds to test designs before mass production and produce small quantities of custom parts. Learn more by viewing this 60-minute webinar as [...]

SolidWorks 2016 Bidirectional Sweep

By |2016-12-15T14:30:59-05:00June 8th, 2016|Categories: SOLIDWORKS, Tech Tips|0 Comments

There’s a new enhancement to the sweep function in SolidWorks 2016 that will allow you to create sweeps for a mid-path profile in either direction or bidirectional. In previous versions of SolidWorks, a profile had to sweep the entire length of the path, no matter the location of the profile sketch. This is no longer the case. Now mid-path profiles can be swept using direction 1, direction 2, or both directions. This simple part (below) [...]
