ESPRIT at Difficult Manufacturing Technology Show 2009

The latest version of computer-aided-manufacturing (CAM) software created by DP Technology will be on display July 2-4 in Nagoya, Japan, where ESPRIT® will be featured at Difficult Manufacturing Technology Show, or DMTS, 2009.

Slated to take place at Port Messe Nagoya, the annual show is a vehicle for the exploration and discovery of complex manufacturing methods. Featuring the newest technologies, the event covers machinery and metals, as well as industrial, manufacturing and engineering technologies.
Knowledgeable and approachable representatives of ESPRIT will be on hand to answer questions and perform demonstrations of the latest time-saving software upgrades.

Designed with ease of use in mind, ESPRIT emphasizes the use of milling or turning in any combination and on any type of machine tool, which means that most improvements to the software are to the benefit of all programmers.

A new concept in highly-advanced machining functionality is based on the idea that any five-axis machining function, no matter how complex, can be defined with a few simple steps. By following the same time-tested steps that programmers use when deciding how to machine 5-axis parts, an advanced CAD/CAM system can combine highly advanced milling technology with an interface that is familiar and easy to understand.

The new patent-pending FreeForm 5-axis composite machining cycle in ESPRIT allows users to independently define machining patterns and tool orientation strategies to be used when creating the simultaneous 5-axis tool path, 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 the user the ability to perform simultaneous 5-axis machining for a wide variety of different parts and industries, including aerospace, medical, and automotive, through one simple user interface.
