MachineWorks version 5 introduces groundbreaking new true solid geometry

Version 5 released of MachineWorks, LightWork Design's market leading CNC simulation and verification technology

SHEFFIELD (February 01, 2002) - LightWork Design, based in Sheffield, UK announced a major new release of their acclaimed MachineWorks technology that features two new geometric engines and a new market-focused structure.

Along with enhancements to the core true solid engine 'Visicut', two new geometric engines, 'Pixelcut' and 'Multicut' have been launched. Pixelcut enables the user to quickly simulate large toolpaths on low specification PCs, and CNC controllers with a limited memory size. Multicut is LightWork Design's patent pending, groundbreaking technology that succeeds in combining speed with a never-before-seen analytical accuracy. This enables the user to infinitely zoom into a CNC toolpath without any compromise in geometric and visualization quality.

MachineWorks version 5 also sees the launch of a new, more market focused licensing structure that now includes a specialist die/mold module based on Multicut, alongside a multi-axis module.

LightWork Design CEO, Dr Gordon Oliver commented, "We see this latest release of MachineWorks as representing a major step forward in CNC simulation technology as a whole. The addition of two new geometric engines to the range will be of real value to CNC programmers everywhere."

MachineWorks Division Manager, Dr David Manley added, "Maintaining our policy of continual innovation, we have worked hard to ensure that version 5 truly adds to our partners' businesses."
