Cad/Cam Facilities

The Computer Aided Design Workstation has AutoCAD LT  software installed , this work station is linked to the Internet for Email and Web services from which design and manufacturing data can be mailed to us direct, enabling a quick exchange of data between us and the client

Ian Butcher - CNC Programmer & Precision Engineer
Tony Hillier - CNC Programmer & Precision Engineer Supplied or generated data can also be plotted interrogated or passed via the CAD workstation to our CAM system for the generation on machine tool cutter paths. Once the geometry has been passed to the CAM system machine tool code can be generated for any of the machine tools available, making for a very flexible and comprehensive manufacturing approach

Our current systems comprise of :-2 Computer Aided Manufacturing Work Stations running the latest Camtek Full Peps Milling and Turning software.

These workstations are linked via internal network to a NC Comms station in the main Machine shop, for Direct Numerical Control and data exchange between the CNC machine tools.
