Perhaps his voices are asking that box .. -- Cliff

He's a joke on the BBS systems & on Usenet to this day. Some of the actual developers and vendors do treasure some of his posts though. They post hardcopies in their break areas for the chuckles. He'd probably love to know which vendors & developers (I probably don't know of all of them) but I'm not telling <G>. -- Cliff

The AFR technology is all done by GSSL in India. GSSL has contracts with UG, SDRC, SolidWorks, etc for their Automatic and Interactive Feature Recognition Technology. >Will this be the same macro language UG uses with the same >capabilities? No, but they are ALL similar. You are using a macro language to automate the CAM process in some way no matter what CAM system it is. It might help you to focus on the CAM automation concept rather than the specific language or specfic CAM program. > Are they posting here? No. I don't think we have enough CAM users who appreciate the value of UG CAM. .... >Don't you know SmartCAM? If SmartCAM was still a going concern and I did not believe so heavily in Automatic Feature Recognition, I would learn SmartCAM because I believe it was / is still FAR ahead of most CAM programs. The founders of SmartCAM had the vision thing....BIG TIME, IN SPADES !!! You don't even post with SmartCAM, you generate G-code as you go along. SmartCAM was designed as a CAM system for automation and to deal with any kind of change at any time. Point Control was so far ahead of it's time compared to SURFCAM, MasterCAM, GibbSCAM, DP, etc. It's tragic that SDRC killed it. ] - Jan 29 2002 by jon_banquer [ The toolpath editing in SmartCAM is used by better SmartCAM users (not Brewer) to create optimized toolpaths for production. ] - Dec 21 2007 by jon_banquer [ Only SmartCAM provides full toolpath editing, right down to individual toolpath elements.

They are a very, very, serious firm that is only going to get bigger and attract more clients, like SDRC. I believe GSSL's feature recognition package will be in SolidWorks 98 Plus ] - Aug 7 1998 by Jon Banquer I like my MDT 3.0 very much, and my SDRC Ideas MS6, but I am saddly stating I am purchasing a seat of SolidWorks to do some of my cavity design work.

[ I also looked at SDRC Ideas, NICE package. ] - Sep 16 1998 by Jon Banquer [ I take in the demo of SmartCAM, (Hopefully soon.) I will have a much better idea of what to look for. I will be evaluating it for a client who is unhappy with his current 2 1/2D system.

"SmartCAM Freeform does multi-surface maching as well as it can be done , absolutely no need to have a solid for toolpath that involves many, many surfaces." - Jun 18 1998 by Jon Banquer "SmartCAM has full graphical control over the tool path. I have only used SmartCAM once for a few hours. Not a lot of shops in CT have SmartCAM... mostly MasterCAM. I used SmartCAM once for a few hours and did recognize that it was powerful." - Jun 12 1998 by Jon Banquer "SmartCAM uses Code generation not post processing," - Jun 12 1998 by Jon Banquer "This was especially true of SmartCAM, who in my view appears to STILL be light years ahead of MasterCAM" - Jul 10 1998 by Jon Banquer Etc. -- Cliff
From: albert.inspirtech on 27 Jan 2008 10:01 A very good point was made. SolidWorks is a tool... much like Microsoft Word. AS good as it gets if I am make a good and type you instead of your or did in stead of didn't it cannont fix it. Much the same way if you are expecting SolidWorks to understand exaclty what you are thinking... good luck!!! Al whatmough www.inspirtech.com

Not a single mention of it. |
