CAM - COMPUTER AIDED MANUFACTURING
Hercules Machine Tool & Die
Using WorkNC, our CAM department uses a variety of tools
and cutting methods to program each job so it is machined
in the most efficient manner while keeping a quality surface
finish.
Whether your job is a zinc prototype tool, a cast iron
casting or blocks of steel we can create accurate and
efficient programs whatever the part shape. The Hercules
CAM department uses tool holder collision checking to
create programs that can be run unmanned with
automatic tool changes.
Do you need 2-D programming? We are able to take your
solid model design and create milling, drilling & tapping
programs using SmirtWare on our machines to create the
programs for our 2-D work, saving time & improving
accuracy.
In order to duplicate an existing tool we are able to create NC
programs from a point cloud scan of the tool you wish to
duplicate. Hercules can create NC programs for machining
your jobs at our facility or to be run at your shop.
