What do we have scheduled!

• -A brief description about manufacturing!
• -What we want to change!
• -How can we change it!
• -Introduction of the Vendors

4
Manufacturing

• Making a product from raw materials by hand or
  with machinery all operations, including
  packaging, from the first production stage to the
  completion of the product.

5
What we believe in

• As manufacturers we believe that the key to
  successful manufacturing lies in the effective
  use of technology.

6
What do we want?

• As manufacturers we want to work the machinery
  with a minimal usage of direct labor.

7
How can we do this..

• By introducing a software that will make the
  machinery controlled by a sophisticated
  microprocessor with a interface that has been
  simplified so that we would use machines without
  writing lines of code-or debug the faulty code is
  written.

8
TWO VENDORS

• Pathtrace
• vs.
• Lathe Quick Code

9
Pathtrace

• Pathtrace provides a software that allows the
  user to develop customized strategies for
  machining a component and to apply these
  strategies to the machining of similar
  components, dramatically reducing programming
  time.

10
EdgeCAM Strategy Manager and Pathtrace

• With EdgeCAM Strategy Manager Pathtrace has
  developed a knowledge-based feature oriented
  method of programming CNC machines that
  streamlines and automates the programming process
  for more efficient and more effective
  manufacturing.

11
What is EdgeCAM ?

• EdgeCAM Strategy Manager is an interactice,
  graphical tool used to define and capture the way
  in which parts are cut. EdgeCAM Strategy Manager
  allows the user to capture best practice
  manufacturing methods and apply them to
  subsequent jobs, dramatically reducing
  programming time.

12
Benefits of EdgeCAM

• Intelligent manufacturing
• Reduce programming time to second
• Capture machining logic in a simple flow chart
• Profit from the expertise of your workforce

13
Lathe Quick Code

• Lathe Quick Code provides a similar software to
  the one that Pathtrace provides.

14
How does LQC work?

• LQC generates code for CNC lathes in a Fanuc 6 or
  newer programming style, and calculates the
  cutting speed, based on material type, and
  associated factors. It works like a
  conversational mode, allowing you to set
  defaults, fill in the blanks, and generate G
  code.

15
Benefits of LQC

• Lathe Quick Code will save our time trying to
  code the commonly used tools (drilling, reaming,
  tapping, chamfer/center drill, threading, and
  grooving

17
Comparison

• Both of Pathtrace and LQR make our job easier and
  save our time.

18
What we choose?

• Pathtrace !!
