The PowerPoint's -  Manufacturing Extremely Small Parts
In this presentation the viewer will learn many of the
secrets for producing sheet metal parts in materials under
.020 inches thick with tolerances as tight as .001 inches
and an angular tolerances of 1/2 of a degree.
The viewer will also learn about quality control and measurement where just the act of measurement can affect the results. A must view if you are considering working in this scale of sheet metal work. |

The PowerPoint's - Flat Pattern Development
In this PowerPoint we learn about flat pattern development.
Beginning with a brief review of how bend deductions are
found and applied to a flat blank. This program will not take the place of producing flat patterns with your CAD system. Rather it will help the viewer to understand what is going on behind the scenes. Not only will this program help understand the mysteries behind flat pattern layout, it will also help you to make better decisions when making minor adjustments to your parts. |

The PowerPoint's - Reading and Editing G-codes
In this PowerPoint we learn how to read and edit
common sheet metal G-codes. Beginning with punching and
laser calls, their meanings and attributes.
We will walk through the code for both a laser and a
turret press. Following up the presentation by
hand coding a clutch disk for a 1913
Excelsior Auto-cycle (motorcycle). A fun and interesting
program that will leave the viewer ready to read and edit
the G-codes right at the controller.

The PowerPoint's - Laser Fundamentals In this PowerPoint we learn about the basic physics behind the laser. We will learn about waves, hertz, frequency and the light spectrum from radio waves to x-rays and we’ll discuss the difference between E1 and E2; the high and low energy states of the medium. |
  |
The PowerPoint's - The Laser Medium In this PowerPoint we discuss the medium gases and the required quality expectations. Learn about the resonator and the different types of compressors such as slow and fast axial flow. The mirrors and TEM modes are discussed along with setting the correct focus and focus zero; beam parameters and wave modes: continuous, pulsed, spike, enhanced and super enhanced. |

ASMA 5.0 For Windows-NT and older systems May we suggest ASMA 6.0? This software is not meant to replace your CAD system rather to complement it. With only a few selections from pull down lists this software will tell you more about the bend then you probably want or need to know including selecting a perfect die opening, One that will achieve the inside radius that is desired based on material, method, thickness etc. It then allows you to pick a die opening that is available and then it presents a side by side comparison of the data, allowing for correct bend deduction development. On the "shop floor" this software will help the operator to make better tooling selections. The software also develops "deep box" and "Bump radius" data and much more. |

ASMA 6.0 For Windows.net Vista -7 Software will run on Windows-NT ASMA 6.0 will not replace your CAD system rather it complements it. With only a few inputs and selections from pull down lists this software will tell you everything need to know for precise press brake forming, including the selection of a perfect die opening. Warns when the die selection is to narrow or the tonnage is too high. It allows you to select a die opening available in your shop and then side by side presents a comparison of the data from the optimum opening and the new die opening; allowing for correct bend deduction calculations and flat pattern development. On the "shop floor" this software will help the operator to make better and safer tooling selections. |

DVD PowerPoint What your trainers aren't teaching you about Press Brakes Copyright 2009 Originally presented as a "FabCast" for the FMA this PowerPoint presentation has been converted to DVD and is now available for your review on your company television or computer. Learn what you may and may not be doing correctly when it comes to engineering for or the operating of press brakes. |
