Peterborough-based
Predator Software Ltd will be previewing Version 12 of its suite of manufacturing automation software at
MACH 2022 (Hall 17, Stand 434), ahead of its official release later this year, along with new versions of its DNC, data collection, product data management and CNC simulation applications. The event will be taking place from 4-8 April, at the NEC, Birmingham.
Jim Abbassian, Predator Software’s president, said: “All of our applications will benefit from an improved user interface, offering our customers even more choice in the way they interact with Predator applications day-to-day.
“The changes for version 12 are more than cosmetic, as Predator Virtual CNC V12 introduces new analytics and optimisation tools that intelligently adjust feeds and speeds to improve cycle time, tool life and finish.
“Predator MDC will allow customers to create ‘value streams’ for reporting, along with the ability to add or remove machines as required.
“The resolution of data collection has been further enhanced by adding support for serial numbers per part, while Predator Tracker adds support for tool life management. Finally, all V12 editions of Predator Software will support Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022.”
