KM Engineering Tools was established in 2008 in Chennai. Thanks to SolidCAM and our perfectly experienced post-processor and demo technicians, we were able to respond to our customer's wishes without delay and to react quickly.Īccording to the manager, this had never been the case with EdgeCAM because their post-processors turned out to be poor and their support had been slow. Shortly after they had received training and with the support of one of our application engineers, they started with the production of complex parts, such as a cylinder head for motorsports.īy the way, the stability of this component could, later on, be admired in a German television broadcast called "Grip - Das Motormagazin". The business manager ordered our Solidworks/SolidCAM 2.5D bundle up to 5x simultaneous. They focus on the machining of turned and milled parts of small and medium component sizes.Īfter a demo and subsequent live cutting on one of their machines, the managing director decided on SolidCAM where iMachining was clearly the door opener here. This manufacturing company worked in the field of mechanical production of components by means of computer-controlled machining centers. They were looking for a CAM system that would allow them to machine a lot of material quickly and with process reliability. One day we learned from a close technology and cooperation partner that one of their customers is dissatisfied with EdgeCAM. In this period we were able to build the post-processor, give the training to the customer to use SolidCAM, and still machine the test piece - our competitor was unable to build the post-processor in time. Another point was the time available for machining the model part, with a deadline of 7 days. The customer had little information about the machine and its commands, with only 1 example program. The challenge in this process was the technical validation and response time for building the post-processor. They had a router for machining fiber models, with 5 axes, produced in China, with the SYNTEC controller. We arrived at them by a cold call from an article published in an aviation magazine ( embraer.html), and soon after the client found us via Google, and their website is ĭuring the review process, we were competing with Edgecam.įor validation on which CAM to use, the client called SolidCAM Brasil and the local Edgecam vendor.
