Newbie- " L Caps" programming software

[bush1355]

Has any one heard of this one? It may be a jargon twist of a longer named - similar product. I'll be interviewing with a group that uses this software.
Thanks in advance for input on this.

Interesting, I recall it it being mentioned in "gaming" programming. What kind of position are you interviewing for?

[bush1355]

The person I spoke to mentioned they use it on a programming terminal for Fadal VMC's and Mori lathes

[bush1355]

Sorry for the delay, I was researching the company. The position is for programmer/ machinist VMC & CNC lathes

lol, no apology required, you weren't only one doing research..... found this:



Mori Seiki Co. Ltd. also offers an Ethernet network connection for machine tool customers with its CAPS-NET software and the Mori Advanced Programming Production System (MAPPS) human-machine interface. With the CAPS-NET and CAPS-DSN (Computer-Aided Production System-Datastore on Network), Mori Seiki’s customers can get regular updates on the status of machines connected to the network, says David Austin, information and engineering manager for Mori Seiki U.S.A. Inc. (Irving, TX).

Caps-m is mori-seiki conversational programming software for mills. I use it every day. Great stuff, albeit older. Caps-l would be the lathe variant.

How did that go? Did you get the job? Where was it?
