#10 Today’s Medical Development’s Best of 2021: Optimizing NC programs for machine tools

Today’s Medical Developments (TMD): How can medical manufacturers successfully manage the tools in their manufacturing workflow?

Alan Levine (AL): hyperMILL’s extensive database enables users to manage tools of all types – from drills and milling cutters to complex turning tools – which can all be mapped virtually and linked with technology data. Depending on the machining application, speed and feed values can be controlled with maximum precision. Individual process data for materials and applications can be stored while manufacturing standards are stored in a central database for easy access by a programmer. The hyperMILL tool database helps ensure only proven, efficient tools and machining values are used. A well-organized tool database is also required for automation procedures.
