MazaTech Solutions Helps Shops using Mazatrol Advantage

By DE Editors

SolutionWare Corporation (San Jose, CA) and MazaTech Solutions (Australia) partnered to provide full functioning CAD/CAM solutions to Mazak shops, giving them the flexibility of continuing to program in Mazatrol as well as keeping the Mazatrol advantage by programming in the MazaCAM CAD/CAM and Editor.

MazaCAM CAD/CAM capabilities include programming Mazak machines using Mazatrol; it programs G-code machines with full functioning user-configurable post-processors that are common to G-code machines.

MazaCAM gives the Mazak shop the ability to take a Mazatrol program from an older machine and convert it to a newer control such as the Fusion or Matrix.

This ability is greatly maximized when you take a newer control program and convert it to the older controls. Once you have a Mazatrol program for one machine, you can convert that to virtually any other Mazak/control (with reasonable limitations).

MazaCAM is a full functioning CAD/CAM system that gives shops the abilities expected in a CAD/CAM system such as loading of CAD files, programming in a graphics environment, output programs to either G-code or Mazatrol, full RS232 communications, etc.
