TPE are a very recent customer of Prosoft having only a few weeks ago taken delivery of their new Mastercam software of Mill level 2 with Lathe and Solids.
After two days training on site their two new programmers they were up and running just as word reached one of their customers of their new purchase and who promptly sent them and urgent request to manufacture a new design drill bit.
The job was set up to run on the Okuma 4 axis machining center however due to their limited experience they were having difficulty in getting the tool paths to run as they wanted and they were under some pressure to get the job out...
Darryl from TPE continues with the story
"We immediately called Prosoft and Sri was assigned to help and he got involved in sorting out the program. We had been asked by a local civil engineering company to make a complex shaped drill head, for a tool that is used to test ground density, and at what depth the bedrock or shingle belt is below the surface. This is done to see if there is any chance of potential soil liquefaction in the event of an earthquake in the test area for future building site. Sri put together a program that we were able to put straight onto our Okuma 4 axis machining centre where we ran the part with no fuss and got a great result.The client was very happy and importantly the part worked properly from very first usage.
thank you Sri and Prosoft..
Darryl Remnant"
