Delta Tau Introduces PMAC NC 5.0
Customizable Windows GUI for PC Based CNC control
CHATSWORTH, CA— August 20, 2004— Delta Tau Data Systems Inc., the technology leader in multi-axis programmable motion control solutions, today announced the release of PMAC NC 5.0 software, a Windows-based customizable GUI for PC based CNC control.
“With the combination of PMAC HMI and the NC server, this new release offers the most advanced and flexible CNC software package available,” said Vince Burokas, Product Manager for CNC at Delta Tau Data Systems, Inc. “This new version builds on Delta Tau’s previous G-code software package that leverages Delta Tau’s legendary servo hardware performance to bring unprecedented levels of block throughput speed, cutting accuracy and the flexibility of a PC-based environment to the shop floor.”
NC 5.0 has all of the features of the previous version with the added advantage of easy user screen customization. The Windows-based environment allows users to combine NC 5.0 with their favorite PC compatible CAD/CAM or conversational package. This gives the operator or programmer the flexibility to program directly at the machine or remotely at a desk. The multi-tasking utilities of the Windows operating system enable CNC parts to be run, while the user simultaneously programs other programs. Connectivity tools, such as Ethernet and USB2.0, are easy to set up and provide unparalleled reductions in time spent transferring part program files. The part program size is limited only by the hard drive space.
The combined CNC software and one Advantage 410 hardware package from Delta Tau can deliver block throughput speed of more than 1,000 blocks per second. Segmented block look-ahead is available, virtually eliminating overshooting and undercutting. This allows the programmer to concentrate on part geometry and not control capabilities.
