CAM-POST^® V16 no longer supported as of March 27, 2009

ICAM Technologies Corporation is presently issuing its current release of CAM-POST^® (Version 18) to all its customers that have subscribed to its Maintenance & Support Program.

Please be advised that ICAM will only maintain and provide technical support services to customers on the current version of CAM-POST and the prior edition. Subsequently, with the recent dissemination of CAM-POST V18, ICAM will no longer provide updates and on-line technical support services to customers using CAM-POST V16 as of  March 27, 2009.

It is therefore, recommended that all clients using older versions of CAM-POST upgrade to either V17 or V18 to take full advantage of the enhancements and advanced optimization features offered in more recent CAM-POST releases.

Building on advanced "forward-looking" features such as path planning and rotary axes pre-positioning / winding that were developed to enhance the machining process while avoiding dwell marks, over-traveling and rotary repositioning, CAM-POST V18 offers an array of new features to its end-users including:

• Rotary head support for 5-axis Mill / Turn machines
• New polar interpolation (TRANSMIT, G12.1.) and emulation support for Mill / Turn and Mill machines
• Rotary axis "singular positioning" optimization to avoid linear axis over-traveling conditions
• Automatic switching between Cartesian (xyz) and Polar (zxc) to avoid linear axis over-traveling

ICAM's complete NC manufacturing product line including CAM-POST V18 is now available for 32 and 64-bit processors and supports Windows Vista^®.

Please contact ICAM's Technical Support department by telephone at 1-800-827-ICAM or by email at support@icam.com for further information.
