Missler Software launches TopSolid’Cam 7, the 7th generation of its CAM software TopSolid’Cam. The French CAM/CAM developer released TopSolid’Design 7 2 years ago and now completes its integrated CAD/CAM solution with the release of TopSolid’Cam 7.
Comletely based on new software technology TopSolid 7 offers huge innovations on the CAD/CAM market. TopSolid 7 has been entirely re-thought and rewritten both in terms of software technology and methodology.
TopSolid’Cam 7’s revolutionary interface and exceptional performances will allow its users to machine faster and more accurately.
Program milling and turning machines with TopSolid’Cam 7
TopSolid’Cam 7 is already used by approximately 50 customers since the release of the 7.5 version in 2011. TopSolid’Cam 7.6, which has been released this month, offers continuous 5 axis functions and the possibility to program MillTurn machines, in particular turning machines.
The complete CAD/CAM integration offered by Missler Software is a major differentiating point between TopSolid and other CAD/CAM software packages on the market. This complete and transparent integration of a CAD and CAM solution is, and already was (with TopSolid v6) and will continue to be (with TopSolid 7) the unique strong and most original and key selling point of TopSolid.
The French software developer intends on showing its dedication to the production market with the release of TopSolid’Cam 7. According to Christian Arber, Missler Software CEO “TopSolid is above all an integrated CAD/CAM solution for companies that wish to produce and manufacture what they have designed. TopSolid has been developed to use and take advantage of design and machining know-how from the 3D model right up to machine programming. »
CAM leader in France and across the globe
TopSolid’Cam is today one of the leading CAM solutions used by manufacturers and sub-contractors in France. One may ask why Missler Software has developed a 7th generation CAM solution. According to Jean-Pierre Lugarini, CAM development Director at Missler Software « All software developers need to continually rethink and create new solutions so that its customers avail of the most up-to-date technology. We all benefit from such development, especially our customers.”
Strong features of TopSolid’Cam 7
- Only CAM software to be completely rewritten and to have adopted a native Windows 7 ergonomy (modern, intuitive and very powerful interface).
- Only CAM software to manage files, machine tools, cutting tools and ISO files with an integrated and transparent PDM.
- Machining of the designed part without worrying about tolerances or data re-entry thanks to the new FreeShape function. (In mechanical engineering the machined part is often very different to the nominal part).
- Without forgetting the key functions already proposed in version 6 of TopSolid’Cam
- Stock management for all milling and turning operations.
- Strong CAD integration and use of features to enable part redesign for ultimate machining.
- Save and reuse company know-how.
- Advanced simulation of lathes/milling machines.
- Creation of operating files which manage tracking system needs for sub-contractors.
About TopSolid 7
Completely based on new software development technology, TopSolid 7 responds to the increasingly complex industry needs. TopSolid 7 is in fact the result of 6 years of intense development which has permitted the integration of such technological advances as MultiCore, PDM, web compatibility, software components and computer-generated images. The first TopSolid 7 clients in the mechanical engineering field have experienced time gains in the region of 20 to 30%. Missler Software wishes to keep an excellent compatibility and between the TopSolid versions 6 and 7. In this way our customers benefit from a whole new technology while keeping all know-how they have built up with version 6
