OPEN MIND's hyperMILL® Certified for Autodesk Inventor 11


Autodesk (San Rafael, CA) has officially certified hyperMILL® CAM software from OPEN MIND Technologies for version 11 of Autodesk Inventor®. With this certification, Autodesk guarantees that third-party applications are perfectly compatible with Inventor, assuring maximum reliability and performance.

OPEN MIND Technologies AG has been participating in the "Autodesk Inventor Certified Application Program" for many years now. To gain certification, hyperMILL® in Autodesk Inventor® has to comply with certain standards and test criteria. For the user, this means that the application will work securely and reliably with Autodesk Inventor®. hyperMILL® is incorporated optimally into Autodesk Inventor thanks to OPEN MIND's proven integration technology. The plug-in interfaces enable the CAM software to be embedded seamlessly into the CAD environment. This means that users can rely on a familiar working environment.

For continuous processing
"CAD integration of hyperMILL® offers a range of advantages, especially in the area of continuous processing, user-friendliness and the performance of the CAM system," says Hagen Rühlich, Technical Director of OPEN MIND Technologies AG. "Both the CAD and the CAM systems access the same database."

Using one single data model for the entire process - from design to programming to simulation - ensures more transparency and reliability. It is therefore possible to design and perform calculations in parallel. Familiar user interfaces reduce error rates and increase acceptance amongst users.

hyperMILL® - a CAM solution with high-end strategies
hyperMILL® integrates fully developed feature technology, which considerably minimizes programming effort due to feature recognition and transfer, hole and pocket features as well as a feature list and feature browser. Maximum flexibility is guaranteed through 2D, 3D, HSC and innovative 5-axis modules, all under an intuitive user interface. The postprocessors, tailored to specific machines, controllers and manufacturing processes, ensure that the CAM programs are processed seamlessly on the machine. For companies this means a uniform manufacturing concept and a flawless machining process with the best possible results
