Description

NX CAM is a Siemens manufacturing software solution that helps companies automate CNC programming, accelerate machining, and improve production quality. It provides a single integrated CAD/CAM environment for moving from digital part models to precision machined components. The platform supports prismatic machining, mold and die work, electrode manufacturing, complex part machining, postprocessing, simulation, and on-machine probing. NX CAM uses feature-based machining and modern interactive techniques to generate operations faster and standardize programming processes. Its advanced machining strategies support high-performance roughing, high-feed finishing, multi-axis machining, and efficient material removal. Integrated G-code-driven simulation helps users validate machine tool motion, detect errors, reduce setups, and maximize machine uptime before production begins. The software also offers a cloud-based postprocessing solution with more than 1,000 postprocessors and machine digital twins. NX X Manufacturing brings CAD/CAM capabilities into a SaaS environment with cloud flexibility, security, and scalability. By combining CAD, CAM, simulation, probing, tool management, and manufacturing collaboration, NX CAM helps production teams improve throughput, accuracy, and shop floor efficiency.

Description

ETW, located in Wisconsin, specializes in manufacturing both standard and custom tooling, utilizing a diverse array of tools within our machining departments. Each tool assembly is meticulously reproduced in our CAD/CAM software using user-defined templates to guarantee accurate part simulations. Programmers can swiftly program parts and select tools from the CAM library with just a click, eliminating the need to recreate tools each time they are required. Whenever feasible, standard tools are employed as they often remain installed in the machines, thereby minimizing setup times. Non-standard tools are reserved for unavoidable situations, which helps streamline the setup process. To enhance tooling efficiency and accurately monitor usage, ETW has created a proprietary software called Total Tool Management (TTM), which oversees the tools utilized across all our machines and projects. Every assembly and component is cataloged in a centralized database, providing the capability to search for any specific component or assembly for quick and convenient access. This innovative approach not only optimizes our tooling processes but also significantly improves productivity across the board.
