Leaders-In background

Griffo Brothers’ GB\GeoSolid software now offers additional support for Integrex I series and Variaxis machining centers. The program enables the use of SolidWorks part files and part manipulation capabilities with the Mazatrol programming features of CamLink. The system is said to reduce programming time because the solids data is already contained in the SolidWorks model, and programming errors are avoided by extracting information directly from a 3D part design rather than 2D data. New features help automate the creation of WPC shift so that Mazatrol programming can be applied to any face.
