hyperMILL integrates seamlessly with Autodesk Inventor 2012

  • Autodesk Inventor 2012 Open Mind hyperMILL
Open Mind Technologies'hyperMILL CAM solution has been certified for Autodesk Inventor 2012 mechanical design and engineering software. This officially confirms the seamless integration of hyperMILL into the latest release from the leading provider digital prototyping solutions.

Digital Prototyping with Autodesk Inventor software gives manufacturers the ability to digitally design, visualise and simulate how a product will work under real world conditions before it is built, which helps reduce cost and increase efficiency. Data associativity enables continuous processes when the two systems are combined.

The integration of hyperMILL allows users to directly access the optimal machining strategy for their product in a continuous workflow using the familiar user interface for the CAD application. This ensures a seamless process from design through to manufacturing.

The hyperMILL CAM solution from Open Mind underwent rigorous test procedures at Autodesk and has been certified as meeting the highest standards of quality and compatibility, and successfully integrated into Autodesk Inventor 2012.

Thanks to full associativity with Autodesk design data, it is now possible to have CAM operations automatically updated in hyperMILL, if changes are made to the CAD models. Sharing access to the same database and using hyperMILL from the CAD user interface increases speed and efficiency, helps prevent errors and reduces the user's overall workload.
