Haverhill, Massachusetts – February 5, 2014 — IMS Software announced the signing of a reseller agreement with DESYS CTE of Bielefeld, Germany.
“The requirements of CAM systems and CNC machines are continuously evolving” says Heiko Grossmann, team leader of CAM technologies at DESYS CTE. “Our customers, who are coming from automotive, aerospace and tool making industries, expect CAM-generated NC-code to be stable and reliable, without requiring further modification on the shop floor. IMS Software offers highly flexible, stable and fast postprocessing solutions to meet these expectations.”
“The trend is to create more complex programs with combined drilling, milling and turning, including dynamic 5-axis machining which is highly prone to expensive collisions. With their controller emulators IMS offers the possibility to simulate and optimize the NC code during the CAM programming for almost any machine configuration and controller. Complex machines like multi-axis mills and multi-spindle lathes can be simulated at the NC code level, which dramatically reduces the risk of collisions and setup time on the shop floor.”
“IMSpost and IMSce are flexible enough to generate and simulate NC programs which do not fit the ISO specification. The possibility to use controller emulators for the Heidenhain conversational controller, which has widespread use in Germany, is a tremendous benefit for our customers.”
«DESYS is very well respected for their manufacturing expertise» says Dan Wrenn, president and co-founder of IMS Software. «We are very excited about the impact this partnership will have for our respective customers. Germany, Austria and Switzerland are key growth areas for IMS, and DESYS is strategic to that plan.»
