Griffo Brothers’ CamLink software for offline Mazatrol CNC programming is now available for use with Windows 10 and Mazak’s Smooth Control. Users can save files from their machines and translate programs from one generation of machines to the next. The software also enables users to move data from Solidworks into Mazatrol. Users can store and retrieve Mazatrol or EIA/ISO files offline. Programs can be uploaded or downloaded between a machine and a PC.
Additionally, users can print hard copies of system programs; create or edit programs at a PC; shape check the program part; and run a toolpath check to visualize how the program will run to make adjustments. Users can link Mazatrol to CAD, and DXF files can be converted directly to the system. Mazatrol programs can be created from SolidWorks using the part model.
