The fast-growing Software Sector at IMTS 2024 – The International Manufacturing Technology Show will feature more than 120 exhibitors and numerous technology debuts. The following are just a few of the products to be featured:
Hexagon’s (booth #133210) new HxGN Production Machining Suite improves collaboration between departments to break down barriers to innovation while ensuring every part built goes out with the right tolerances. Features include CAM for CNC programming, process simulation, shop-floor production intelligence, and the ability to utilize AI and digital twin technology to optimize processes.
“Data is the new oil, so what data do you collect?” asks Corbin Embrey, CEO of Shamrock Precision USA. The company is now working with SolidCAM (booth #339265), which will demonstrate its iMachining Technology Wizard software that automatically calculates optimal cutting conditions for every segment of the tool path. With software, Shamrock can take data that is used to reside in different silos, connect elements together, and collect machine data to determine if the machines are running optimally.
For those who want to gather real-time data, MTConnect is a set of open-source interoperability standards that establishes a common language for equipment and devices to interact on the factory floor. Members of the MTConnect Institute will be on-hand in AMT’s Emerging Technology Center (booth #236700).
CADDIS Systems (booth #135947) will demonstrate a durable shop floor device for data collection and an intuitive dashboard for real time monitoring.
CGTech (booth #133340) will demonstrate the new 9.5 VERICUT version, which now includes a heat map to display tool wear patterns, a new postcheck investigative tool to review archived data directly from the NC machine, and the ability to receive email or Teams notifications when a simulation is completed.
