On 3-4 June
Open Mind Technologies will be returning to the Birmingham NEC to exhibit at the
Smart Manufacturing Week event. The CAD/CAM specialist will present the newest advancements from the latest version of its hyperMILL CAD/CAM suite on its stand.
The focus will be on solutions for digital process chains, connected manufacturing, automation, and hyperMILL Virtual Machining. Open Mind will provide insights into various practical applications of hyperMILL.
The collaboration between a CAM system and IT solutions, such as manufacturing execution systems (MES), product lifecycle management (PLM), or a tool management system, is becoming increasingly common in modern manufacturing. On the Open Mind stand at Smart Manufacturing Week, visitors will see how hyperMILL integrates with the Hummingbird MES to make production processes more transparent, efficient, and flexible.
Hummingbird MES is compatible with a wide range of CAD/CAM systems, and at Smart Manufacturing, the Open Mind team will show how all production-related data is accessible anywhere in the company at any time. This supports consistent process organisation and distinguishes Hummingbird from many other MES solutions. Every change, such as the completion of a component, is immediately visible to all users without needing to click a refresh button.
An integral component of Hummingbird MES is the Kanban board for planning and workshop oversight. While the planning board provides comprehensive information about processes without assigned tasks, the team board acts as a central communication tool for the entire team.
The Hummingbird MES supports all CAM systems and production machines and integrates seamlessly with hyperMILL. The digitalisation through Hummingbird also includes a digital tool management suite in its portfolio. With the ‘Tool Logistics’ module in Hummingbird MES, users can achieve highly efficient digital tool management effortlessly.
Open Mind experts can implement digital processes based on CAM and MES to deliver highly efficient digital tool management through five simple steps.
Visitors can meet them on stand K184 at the Smart Manufacturing Week exhibition to find out how Open Mind can streamline production and process chains for users.
