“We partnered with Helical and Harvey Tool because their tools are well respected in the manufacturing industry and are of very good quality,” says Rich Taft, Product Owner, CNC Software, Inc. The balance of the Harvey Tool and Helical Solutions tool libraries, which will include Harvey Tool’s Specialty Profile cutting tools, Holemaking and Threading tools, and Helical Solutions’ chamfer mills, are under construction and will be released soon. Users that take advantage of this feature can program confidently due to accurate tool dimensions and tool data optimized in partnership with Harvey Tool and Helical Solutions specifically for Mastercam. Now, Mastercam users can download the Harvey Tool and Helical Solutions tool libraries to have those tool immediately available in Mastercam. Without these libraries, machinists would need to look up a tool in a manufacturer’s catalog and manually build the tool in Mastercam. Importing accurate tool libraries vetted by both Mastercam and manufacturers directly into the software saves the machinist valuable time. Readily available, comprehensive tool libraries translate into increased productivity for Mastercam users. These libraries, optimized for all supported Mastercam versions, contain all the end mill options that can be found in Harvey Tool and Helical Solutions most recent catalogs, totaling to more than 15,000 tools now available for Mastercam users to import. Mastercam recently announced that Harvey Tool and Helical Solutions’ tool libraries are now available to Mastercam users on Mastercam’s Tech Exchange site.
