Sheet metal technology

Sheet metal parts are widely used in electrical appliances, electronic control, communications, machinery and other industries. As appearance and structure parts of products, sheet metal parts directly affect the quality and sales of products. In today’s increasingly fierce market competition, how to use advanced equipment and technology to improve enterprise production efficiency and product quality is a common concern of every enterprise. As a result, modern sheet metal production enterprises have generally begun to attach importance to the investment of software while investing in equipment. With the support of software, they can make the equipment play a real role and accelerate the return on investment.

However, the application of general CAD/CAM software to sheet metal products and production is not only cumbersome in operation, but also powerless in function. The professional CAD/CAM software of sheet metal has strong professional characteristics, and has accumulated long-term application experience and professional knowledge of developers. It is very different from the general CAD/CAM software, which can greatly improve the design and manufacturing quality of sheet metal parts, and effectively manage their logistics and production.

The most common numerical control equipment of sheet metal manufacturers is the machine tool produced by Japan AMADA Company. The PROCAM software was developed by Teksoft Company in the United States since 1981. The product Ampuch-1/Ampuch-3 originally developed was customized by AMADA Company and became the CAM software supporting AMADA machine tools. The software is highly targeted, easy to learn, and very practical. However, because the original version is DOS, its functions are seriously lagging behind.

Nowadays, the PROCAM software is constantly upgraded and improved, which not only preserves the style and simple and practical features of the original professional software, but also enriches the popular functions of today’s CAM software. Windows style interface is friendly and easy to operate. Many users who use Ampuch-1/Ampuch-3 have purchased the PROCAM software. Once the new programming software is opened, engineers will be pleasantly surprised at the familiar menus and functions. After a day of training, I can quickly complete the process of getting familiar with the software, and find that the new functions make programming more simple and reliable, so I can’t put it down quickly.

Since 1995, with the rapid development of domestic CNC punches, PROCAM software and domestic CNC punch manufacturers began to cooperate. PROCAM has done a lot of work on software localization, including Chinese menus, and customized several post-processing modules for various domestic machine tools. The NC program generated by the software can fully meet the requirements of various domestic machine tools and work with the machine tools repeatedly. While improving the level of domestic machine tools with imported software, PROCAM software has the largest user group in China.

In a word, using professional software and professional software suppliers to serve professional fields should be a reliable shortcut to the success of the sheet metal industry. It is like inviting reliable, stable and life-long service industry experts to help enterprises reduce costs, speed up the design and manufacturing cycle, and make enterprises in an invincible position in the fierce competition.
