A bar code symbol is an identification technology that encodes information into parallel arrangements of varying width bars and spaces. The term 'symbology' is used to describe the rules that specify how the data is encoded into the bars and spaces (read more)

3D CAD Files Creation & Prototype Development ProtoCAM has two CAD packages in house, Pro/ENGINEER by Parametric Technologies, and SolidWorks by SolidWorks Corporation. Both are two of the industry's most effective design tools for product prototype development (read more)

2D Data Matrix coding symbology is gaining wide acceptance within the automotive, aerospace, medical device, defense and electronics industries. The Department of Defense selected 2D Data Matrix as the primary code for their Unique Identification (UID) program. In contrast to conventional bar codes 2D Data Matrix expands data collection into the manufacturing, operations, repair and (read more)

The 8055 CNC can govern up to 7 axes and 2 spindles. Block processing time of 1.5 ms may be obtained with it, it analyzes the tool path 75 blocks in advance (look ahead) and it allows smoothening the tool path by applying the right acceleration control (Jerk control). (read more)
