Delcam to launch FeatureCAM in Korea at Die-Mold exhibition
Delcam’s Hankook Delcam office will launch its recently acquired FeatureCAM range of CADCAM software in Korea at the Die-Mold Korea exhibition to be held in Seoul from 14 th to 18 th April . FeatureCAM compliments Delcam’s established Power Solution range of software with cutting-edge CADCAM programming techniques for production machining, incorporating feature-based, knowledge-based, and automatic feature recognition technologies.
“Hankook Delcam is already the leading supplier of CADCAM software to the toolmaking industry in Korea,” claimed Delcam’s Asian Business Development Director Tim Mitchell. “Sales during 2004 were 18% up on 2003 and over 75% up compared to the total for 2002. The addition of the FeatureCAM software range will strengthen this growth by reinforcing our position as a supplier of software for production machining. This expansion of our product range has given Delcam the broadest variety of CAM software on the market. We are convinced that increased productivity given by the high level of automation will make FeatureCAM extremely popular in Korea.”

FeatureCAM’s feature-based technology shortens programming time and makes CADCAM easier to learn by defining parts the same way that machinists describe them. The software’s knowledge-based technology manages manufacturing more efficiently, by combining the power of automation with precise control over machining strategies. At the same time, automatic feature recognition accelerates the design-to-machining process by intelligently and automatically extracting part information from imported CAD files. With FeatureCAM’s AFR, an entire imported 2D solid model can be programmed with a single click.
The range of FeatureCAM products includes FeatureMILL2.5D, FeatureMILL3D, FeatureTURN, FeatureTURN/MILL, FeatureWIRE, FeatureRECOGNITION, Solid Modeling, Tombstone Machining, and 5-Axis Positional Machining. Each program combines power with automation, in an environment that is easy to use and gives the user full control over the level of automation.
Together this range provides a complete solution for production machining with a broad range of data importing options and an extensive library of post processors. The software also offers the ability to create custom posts and edit existing ones, feed rate optimisation, a powerful API for macro creation and program customizations, job quoting documentation, and an integrated 3D simulation package.
