Open Mind’s hyperMill in Autodesk Inventor and for SolidWorks now available in 64-bit version

  • hyperMill for Autodesk Inventor and SolidWorks is 64 bit
Open Mind is now offering a 64-bit version of its hyperMill CAM solution for integration into the Autodesk Inventor and SolidWorks CAD platforms. This enables the latest workstations to be used with 64-bit processor architecture from the design phase right through to CNC manufacturing.

In the past, large detailed components proved a challenge for CAD and CAM systems, with calculations pushing the capacities of the computer hardware to its limits, says Open Mind. The introduction of the 64-bit architecture allows more than 4 GB of RAM to be targeted directly.

The CAM solutions hyperMill in Autodesk Inventor and hyperMill for SolidWorks take full advantage of this option to use extended memory and more efficient multi-core processors. Models that require numerous job steps and multiple toolpaths to be machined, can now be calculated at a significantly faster rate, concludes Open Mind.
