HERMLE'S BASIC PHILOSOPHY, HOWEVER, REMAINS THE SAME: ONE PROVIDER FOR A COMPLETE PACKAGE – FROM THE INITIAL DRAFT FOR A PLANT THROUGH TO SERVICING BEYOND THE GUARANTEE PERIOD.
US cutting tool manufacturer McQuade Industries, Inc., has gained a highly cost-effective productivity advantage by implementing a CNC upgrade program for a line of 5-axis insert grinders. The upgraded machines are much easier to set up and operate, which has enabled the company to shave more than ten minutes per part off the production time of complex geometry cutting tools.
Innovative functionality available with Mentor’s Analog FastSPICE platform can dramatically accelerate nanometer-scale verification of large, post-layout analog designs.
