The software’s newest enhancement is the integration of a ‘manufacturing aware’ computer-aided design (CAD) application called DESIGNER. Hexagon will also highlight the latest version of WORKNC computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software designed for mold and die makers. WESTEC visitors can see these late-breaking EDGECAM features and more demonstrated at regular intervals during the show. Users can dynamically interact with a toolpath and pinpoint exactly which line of code is being simulated. NCSIMUL is Hexagon’s high-end CNC simulation software for G-code verification. Also integrated with EDGECAM is a new component called NCSIMUL Essential providing full simulation of 3-axis milling parts. The software also supports 3+2 machining and complex 5-axis simultaneous milling in all configurations. EDGECAM 2022’s newly-added support for 6-axis milling and turning machines enables programming of the cutter head into positions previously out of reach in just one set-up, which in the past required a series of sequences. In Hexagon Booth #945, attendees will find CAD/CAM software technologies offering future-ready features for trending advancements in manufacturing. 15, 2021 - Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division announced today it will exhibit the newest releases of EDGECAM and WORKNC at WESTEC 2021, Long Beach Convention Center, Long Beach, California, from Nov. 16-18, 2021.

Hexagon Showcases Advanced CAD/CAM Software at WESTEC 2021 Today, every Hexagon solution is mapped and tagged according to its level of automation, so customers can clearly track our progress towards the freedom of autonomy.EDGECAM 2022 anticipates future capabilities for milling and turning WORKNC software introduces 'manufacturing aware' CAD for mold and die makers. Ultimately, our innovations will give rise to new technologies and applications - many of which we’ve yet to imagine.

Our transition to Intelligent automation is accelerating.
