Concepts NREC’s Agile Engineering Design System is a complementary suite of programs for Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) that covers the entire design process — from preliminary sizing through fluid dynamics and mechanical stress and vibration analysis.

This includes a strategic partnership with NUMECA International that enables us to cover the entire design process from preliminary sizing through final design, with full fluid dynamics, mechanical stress, and vibration analysis.Final designs can be easily imported into industry-leading CAM software, MAX-PAC, to create efficient 5-axis machining strategies.

Concepts NREC’s MAX-PAC family of CAM software provides optimal cutter-path solutions for turbomachinery components by offering users several cutting strategies that can reduce engineering costs as well as production costs. MAX-PAC is available in any combination of modules to suit part geometry requirements for flank milling of ruled-surface blading, point milling of arbitrary-surface blading, point milling of integrally shrouded impellers, or milling of single blades.

MAX-PAC has long been recognized as the best CAM software for 5-axis milling of turbomachinery impellers, blisks, and rotors, and enjoys a strong worldwide reputation with manufacturers, job shops, and 5-axis machine-tool companies.

Expertise built into these specialized tools incorporates methodologies protected by three separate patents. Compared to other CAM tools, MAX-PAC addresses only turbomachinery, and as a result, it is faster to learn, easier to use, and requires less programming and machining time. However, its most important attribute is that MAX-PAC produces higher quality parts than its competition.

Version 8.8 of Concepts NREC’s CAM software, MAX-PAC includes improvements to the barrel cutter strategies to allow faster finishing operations, a new post processor generator to allow users to customize APT and Gcode output files and faster calculations on multi-core workstations. In addition, version 8.8 now has multilanguage support, starting with the Chinese language pack coming soon.
