The focus of Open Mind’s trade fair presence at Formnext will be on Hypermill Additive Manufacturing, the CAD/CAM solution to control additive and subtractive processes. Visitors to the company’s stand can find out about the latest technologies and see additive workpieces programmed and machined with Hypermill.

Hypermill Additive Manufacturing expands the possibilities of 5-axis simultaneous machining for the Direct Energy Deposition (DED) process and Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). The NC codes can be conveniently programmed and automatically simulated to avoid collisions. As an end-to-end software solution, Hypermill supports efficient hybrid machining that combines additive and subtractive processes on one machine.

Open Mind will be demonstrating that with additive manufacturing even highly utilized parts can now be repaired using the hybrid machining process. An illustrative example of this is a turbine blade. A blade was repaired on a Hermle C 32 5-axis machining center using Hypermill with a Blum TC52 touch probe. This complex task includes the steps of blade inspection, removal of damaged area, material application, recording of shape and deformation, programming and machining. Hypermill Virtual Machining makes this repair an efficient process. Based on the measured values, this software generates a digital twin of the workpiece and the machine situation for NC code simulation and optimization.
