In todays modern, fast-moving
manufacturing world, selecting the proper equipment and computer
software to support that equipment is vital to your ability
to survive and prosper. You have already selected the best
manufacturing equipment by selecting Thermwood. Now comes the
daunting task of locating, integrating, testing and de-bugging
the software needed to support your specific application. This
can be a difficult task, especially for companies that are
not expert in computers and software. Again, Thermwood can
help.
The Thermwood Software Technology
Group is a sales and support group within Thermwood that focuses
on software products that work with and enhance the operation
of Thermwood CNC routers. Their goal is to offer to Thermwood
customers the most effective software products for their specific
application, smoothly integrated with Thermwoods Control.
You can be certain that software obtained from Thermwood will
work properly with your Thermwood CNC router.
Some of the software products
supported by the Software Technology Group were supplied with
your machine at no additional cost. The DXF Translator and
CADpath are two of those products. Other software products
are written by Thermwood programmers to address specific application
requirements. The remainder of the products are supplied to
Thermwood by third party vendors, but we dont simply
buy the product and sell it to you.
Before we offer a software product,
Thermwood software engineers work with the programmers that
developed the package to make certain that the two systems
work together properly. Integration problems, which are common
when two different systems are mated, are resolved by modifying
the software package, the control or both. We work with software
vendors on extensive programs to make full use of the power
of Thermwoods control by integrating the use of special
Thermwood features into the software product. The result is
a combination of products that would be difficult or impossible
for customers to develop themselves.
For those just starting, Thermwood
can offer everything, the CNC router, the office computer system,
the connecting network and the required software. This package
is fully installed, configured and tested, and your people
are trained in its proper use. The Software Technology Group
even offers custom programming for special requirements.
The Thermwood Software Technology
Group offers a wide variety of software and hardware products
from simple low-cost programs to popular mid-range systems
including CAD/CAM to the most awesome, powerful, and expensive,
software systems available today. We offer products and solutions
for almost every requirement and budget.
