Gain Production Freedom With Ultimaker
Do you want to avoid outsourcing parts and gain production freedom? Paul Klopper (Technical Specialist at Trivium) did just that and this is what he had to say . . . "Our supplier didn't supply a part we needed. It was obsolete. And sometimes we have to replace this part inside the machine because of wear. First, we copied the original design, we 3D printed it in ABS, but ABS wore down pretty fast. Afterward, we optimized the design. And we printed it again with carbon-reinforced nylon. That part has been in the machine ever since. It's great that we can 3D print this part. Because if we have an optimized design, or it is worn, we can replace it within a day." Reasons to choose Ultimaker Just like Paul discovered, the Ultimaker ecosystem gives you an easy way to boost production flexibility and efficiency and gain a sustainable competitive advantage in today’s rapidly changing world. Each 20% off Anniversary Value Pack includes an extended warranty. You can find Ultimaker machines running day and night in the factories, studios, and labs of some of the world's leading companies – such as L'Oréal, NASA, Heineken, Ford, ZEISS, Owens Corning, Schubert, and many more.

Programming Your CMM From Inside Mastercam
Is your CMM programmed by complex, clumsy software? Is it difficult to find and train CMM operators to develop efficient inspection plans? Are the results/reports generated by your software all text-based and challenging for you and your customers to interpret? The Universal CMM (UCMM) is incredible technology that runs ‘inside’ Mastercam and can replace your current CMM programming software. Since this is a software-only solution, you won’t need to scrap all of your existing inspection programs. Whether you are running PC-DMIS, MCOSMOS, or the like, those programs can remain on your CMM controller and may still be used to inspect parts whereas all future inspection plans may be programmed through the UCMM. All programming functions of your CMM are addressable through the UCMM, including probe changers, indexing heads, and special probe support (Star Probes, Disc Probes, etc.). You will not lose any of your CMM’s current functionality by deploying the UCMM. Probe calibration and part alignment functions will be handled in a very similar fashion as your current process. If you have multiple CMM’s each running its own proprietary software, you can replace them all with UCMM and have a common CMM programming platform. Running ‘inside’ Mastercam, the most commonly used CAM software [...]
