Processing speed on the shop floor is more crucial than ever these days – which is why Open Mind Technologies has developed hyperMILL Maxx Machining, the comprehensive high performance CAM solution for roughing, finishing and drilling that generates claimed machining time savings of up to 90%.

The latest version of the software will be on show at the Hurco UK headquarters in High Wycombe on 4th October. At the event, manufacturers will have an opportunity to witness all the latest 5-axis machine tool technology from Hurco with live demonstrations on a VMX42 SRTI machining centre.

The demo day will highlight the synergy and the potential of combining 5-axis machine tools with new tooling concepts such as circle segment endmills from Quickgrind; and the latest hyperMILL Maxx machining module. This performance package offers end users three powerful modules for roughing, finishing and drilling.

With live machining demonstrations on the Hurco VMX42 SRTI, Open Mind engineers will show how hyperMILL's technology can claimed deliver time savings of up to 75% for roughing, using trochoidal toolpaths and the 5-axis helical drilling cycle.

By utilising innovative strategies with barrel cutters, the company will also highlight how cycle time reductions of up to 90% can be achieved for finishing operations. Furthermore, Open Mind will be introducing a number of new concepts and strategies that will help customers to finish parts in rapid time. Some of these techniques will include processes on how to use tilted milling tools to quickly and easily open pockets or drill holes in hard material without the need for a pre-drilled holes.

The event will start at 9am on 4th October and will run through to 2pm with comprehensive live demos, a Q&A session and also the opportunity to talk to engineers from Hurco, Open Mind and Quickgrind on how the synergy between machine tool, CAM and tooling can open up new avenues for manufacturing businesses.
