ABS Machining

[gcode]

My boss just told me to check out this web site.
Apparently we're losing some of our bigger parts to these guys.

ABS Machining

I can see why.. 6 different plants 80+ big machines.
Some of the parts I consider big are not big at all to these guys
Looks like a real nice shop

I wonder what software they are using??
I would guess NX, but that's only a guess.

80in diameter 5ax impellers,.. Shit I am such a pussy LOL
Currently working on programming my largest 5 axis part,.. a 14" x 2.65" 316SST part, and it's been stressing me out hahaha 
I just really enjoy running a nice "fist-sized" part, I've been spoiled for far too long.

A video states "proprietary software" but I would imagine that's not for CAM 

[CNCAppsJames]

Could be TurboCAM... It's rare enough in the wild it could be called proprietary and not be too far from reality. 

[Jon@NOWHERE]

They are in Mississauga Canada it says on the website, really close to my house (less than 30 miles). Adding that they have plants in Brampton and Burlington as well, also really close to my house.

"What do you mean you forgot the decimal??!!"

[mowens]

Decimal points and minus signs. The bane of every programmer.

The bane of every programmer.

Mine's oversize stock.

It's not the fall though, it's the landing 3/4 ruffing tool rapiding through like a Québecker up against a yellow light.

There was a You Tube video that said the were using NREC Cam Software for Blades and impellers

How about an American in the right turn lane in Montreal?
