AUSTECH 2009 was held at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre, Victoria Australia 12th to 15th May 2009.

OneCNC exhibiting at AUSTECH, Melbourne Australia was a great hit for the local manufacturers for numerous reasons. OneCNC is not only well known for providing highly efficient manufacturing solutions but Melbourne Australia was the birthplace of the original product 25 years ago.

In attendance for OneCNC was Erwin (OneCNC Victoria), Scott (OneCNC NSW) and Jake (OneCNC Product Development) to promote the OneCNCXR3 range of products.

Of particular interest was OneCNCXR3 HS machining. This highly efficient method of metal removal received special interest because it is included as a standard feature in all versions of the OneCNCXR3 milling software at no extra cost. OneCNC users have the benefit of an average 50% efficiency increase without the cost of aditional modules or more expensive software.

At Ramjet Tooling we have realized that our most important assets are our employees and of course our customers. Our Toolmakers bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to our company and this is why when we were looking at a cad cam system, there was no real question. Our designer / programmer has been using OneCNC for many years. I remember the first version of OneCNC that I started with, it came on a 5 ½ floppy and was loaded on a 486 running Dos Michael says. OneCNC has grown so much from those early days and so have the programmers that use it.

This sort of experience gives us the confidence to allow us to run our Vmc and EDM unmanned as much as we possibly can in conjunction with our web cameras. Below we show a picture from one of our cameras that we monitor from home so that our machines can run long programs unattended.

All this means we make a lot of electrodes for our EDM and do a lot of extremely fine cavity finishing which can take up to 10 hrs at a time to run. It is extremely important to us to be able to run our machines over night to utilize these hours

Our confidence in OneCNC and our web cameras allow us to do this though you need to be sure your program is good if you want to sleep at night. To date we haven't had a problem.

We look forward to the continued support from OneCNC which we have received to date. With the forum and the technical support they give, we don't believe we can go wrong.

OneCNC UK are pleased to announce that Haas UK have chosen the OneCNC CAD/CAM package to be supplied with all their Haas tool-room mills.

Haas UK recognise that the majority of companies no matter what brand of CNC Machine they purchase, have to invest in a CAD/CAM system sooner or later. They also know, most CAD-CAM systems are very expensive and can be difficult to use.

By providing them with OneCNC, which is easy to use, very powerful and has no yearly maintenance charges, this will save their customers a further investment of time and money in the future.
