SAN DIEGO, CA (SolidWorks World 2014) - C&G Systems, a Japanese with its North America office in Ontario, was showing CAM-TOOL for molds and dies. Though the booth emphasized speed (a cheetah motif was popular at the show) what caught our eye was the incredible precision of a machined part. An array of 0.004" diameter needles had been cut. It was accuracy unmatched on the show floor -- maybe anywhere. You have to see it to believe it. Video here http://youtu.be/nxfWj6n5DKs. CGS says it get this precision because it follows the exact shape of the part, not a triangulated mesh like other CAM programs, yet it can cut a part with similar speed.
