hyperMILL V9.7 updates CAD integration

Alongside added functionality, hyperMILL CAM software brings users’ CAD integrations up to date. Users can access all of the software's functional benefits in an integrated manner, including the new millTURN module. The advantage provided by the CAD-integrated CAM solutions is that they enable the realisation of continuous process chains. The CAD and CAM systems both access the same pool of data. A uniform data model is used during the entire process to ensure the accuracy and transparency of the manufacturing process and to prevent errors. The standard user interface from the CAD environment simplifies CAM programming and raises the user's acceptance of the CAM solution. For the first time, hyperMILL V9.7 realises continuous process chains for SolidWorks® CAD users. In addition, hyperMILL V9.7 already supports the recently released Autodesk Inventor 2008. hyperMILL thus supports all leading CAD applications in its current version as an integrated CAM solution.
