Machine shops are spending fortunes on powerful TMS solutions that never get fully implemented. It’s time to stop buying complexity and start using a solution actually built for the shop floor.
SolidCAM & Job Export SolidCAM: Indexable tools are now split into separate STL files for better simulation accuracy. SolidCAM: Added
Every machinist has lived it – long nights, last-minute reprogramming, the job that should have been simple but turned into a fire drill. The machine is running, but the operator is juggling notes, trying to remember what worked last time, hoping today goes smoother than yesterday.
This cycle of reinventing the wheel is not only inefficient but also costly. The antidote is a disciplined approach to a task many overlook: meticulously tracking your work. This isn’t just about paperwork; it’s about building a library of knowledge that drives quality, streamlines preparation, and future-proofs your operations.
Every machinist knows that no two jobs are ever exactly the same — but the best ones don’t start from zero either. The shops that stay on schedule and on budget aren’t just working harder; they’re working from what already worked.
User Upload & Inventory Users can now import text files even when the brand is set to “Other”. The “Open”
User Upload Added support for WEBP images when uploading Sandvik items. The P21 parser now automatically populates the Grade field
In any machine shop, the pressure is constant. Customers want high-quality parts, tight deadlines, and competitive pricing. In the daily rush to make chips and ship products, it’s easy to fall into a cycle of “just get it done.” A complex job comes in, the team scrambles, relies on memory, and solves the problem. Weeks later, a nearly identical job arrives, and the same scramble begins all over again. Sound familiar?
This cycle of reinventing the wheel is not only inefficient but also costly. The antidote is a disciplined approach to a task many overlook: meticulously tracking your work. This isn’t just about paperwork; it’s about building a library of knowledge that drives quality, streamlines preparation, and future-proofs your operations.
User Upload Users can now change the brand of an item before importing it. Added the ability to create 3D
job planning is the comprehensive process of determining the most efficient, cost-effective, and practical method for manufacturing a specific part or component. It is the crucial strategic step that happens after a design is finalized and before any metal is cut.
It is the systematic determination of the most efficient and economical sequence of operations required to produce a part that meets all engineering specifications. Essentially, it’s the detailed roadmap that guides a component’s journey from a block of metal to a finished product.
