New M&G code 3D Viewer, Editor, DNC Dripfeeder and optimizer software!

[BinaryCam]

Hi, I am new to these forums and would like to introduce myself. I am Mark Overberg, and I am the owner of Binary Cam (www.binarycam.com). A friend of mine has developed a new software package that, imho, is simply amazing.

Both Haas and Fadal are recommending it to purchasers of their new VMC mills. General Motors and some large toolshops have also purchased it. You can email me for a PDF brochure and demo copy that will let you run 45 files through it.

This software installs directly on the control or in your cadroom. It reads most any M&G code toolpath and displays your toolpath in 3d that you can rotate, pan, zoom, etc. It works on 3, 4 and even 5 axis toolpath. You can overlay your path over an STL file of the model, and show the machine, tool, and toolholder. The full color 3d viewer will color your toolpath by Z level or by feedrate to see exactly what your path is doing, and where it is going.

It includes a very powerful editor which lets you find/replace, swap axis, reverse, mirror and edit your path very easily, Even do midpoint starts and the software will implement the proper header and M and G codes from any midpoint block start. Backload your offset pickup tables FROM your control to the software for doing multiple routines on multivises or tombstones. Strip rapids, redudant data, leading or trailing zeros and much more. You can even print graphic pictures of your path with tool info, etc.

The DNC feature allows for real time DNC and drip feed of unlimited file sizes even to controls with no hard storage. Allows for RS232,RS422, USB and Fiber Optic connections. Supports bauds from 1200 to 921,600. Supports X0n/Xoff, RTS/CTS and DSR/DTR protocols. Xmodem,Zmodem, etc.

The most exciting feature though, is the data optimization. This is MUCH more than simple look ahead. The software has 3 algorithms. Conventional, high speed machining and large mass machining. Optimization analyzes your path for ANY directional changes or hard stops and inserts feedrates into your path to decelerate the machine as it enters difficult areas or axis inertia changes and then reaccelerates the path back to optimum speed. Program your path with NO feedrates and then tell the software what maximum surface feedrate that you want to machine at, and the software will do the rest. No more turning down the pot and slowing the WHOLE toolpath just to accomodate your worst conditions.

The optimization path has reduced machine times on complex parts on the Haas and Fadal controls by 30% to 40%. It reduces wear and tear on your ballscrews, improves your finish, increases cutting tool life, eliminates over-shoot and reduces deflection.

You may email me for a PDF brochure and a demonstration copy of the software (that you can actually reload for even more free uses) . My email address is Sales@BinaryCam.Com.

Thanks for reading.

The website looks very sloppy. Can not see anything what so ever about the product. Most people dont want to read just plain text. Secondly, no one has any idea of pricing.

Thanks for the feedback RodneyDeee,

I have used the website primarily for FTP file transfer to date, not as a sales device or web presence. It was done long ago in MSPublisher and needs redoing, no doubt about it. I have added a PDF document in a compressed folder and attached it for those who don't want to email to see the PDF. Thanks again and best regards.

What is ballpark pricing? Is it mill, lathe?

[BinaryCam]

Sorry RodneyDeeee, if you look at the PDF file in the zip I attached, Pricing is at the end of the PDF.

The 3d 3 axis viewer is $650
The Data-Link DNC feature is $325
The 5 axis option is $1,250
and the Optimizer is $2,500

Educational institutions get the sofware for $50/seat which includes all maintenance. There is 4 community college technical centers currently teaching the software.
