CAM software
OPEN MIND Technologies AG is a German developer of CAM solutions. The company was founded in 1984 as an algorithm developer for CNC controller manufacturers (Grundig/ Philips, Siemens). Building on this extensive NC know-how, they developed the CAM software package hyperMILL.
hyperMILL AUTOMATION CENTER
hyperMILL AUTOMATION Center is an advanced solution designed for the automation and standardization of both simple and complex processes in CAM programming. It allows the storage of programming procedures and sharing them with the team, which leads to shorter programming times and a reduced risk of human error.
Using this solution enables “one-click” programming, which simplifies the execution of defined processes and reduces the level of expertise required for programming.
hyperMILL VIRTUAL MACHINING
Components or production parts are becoming more complex and the required production times are getting shorter.
As a result, companies need to optimise production processes by reducing auxiliary machining times and avoiding downtime.
The high-performance, NC code-based hyperMILL VIRTUAL Machining module does just that.
Thanks to networking and virtual start-up of real processes, operations on the machine can be evaluated, verified and optimised before it is started.
hyperMILL MAXX MACHINING
MAXX Machining is a new high-performance roughing feature with deep cutting that utilizes the full length of the tool’s cutting edge and applies low radial engagement with a spiral toolpath, significantly reducing machining times.
This feature can be used for 2D, 3D, and 5X roughing operations.

hyperMILL 5X MILLING
5-axis machining hyperMILL is recognised worldwide as an innovative, easy and reliable technology to use. Depending on the machining task and the machine kinematics, users can choose the optimal type of 5-axis machining.
From a variety of tilting strategies including 3+2 fixed angle tooling, auto indexing and 5-axis simultaneous machining.
Knowledge of 3D interface strategies such as profile machining or automatic scrap processing can be upgraded to 5-axis machining. A wide range of 5-axis strategies is available for contouring coarse and fine surfaces and shapes (Shape Offset Strategies).
hyperMILL 2.5D MILLING
Typical 2D operations use strategies such as face milling, pocket milling, contour milling, and rest milling with larger tools.
Programming efficiency in pocketing and hole making is increased and improved with the Building Block Recognition function, which automatically sorts holes/pockets so that we can process all elements more clearly.
hyperMILL 3D MILLING
Simple and complex products can be efficiently machined with 3D strategies ranging from coarse volume milling with residue calculation to fine profile milling, residue milling and special strategies such as complete and uniform milling.
Actively avoiding collisions between the workpiece and non-cutting parts of the tool, toolholders, machine spindle and chucks helps us to optimise the programme and achieve full tool efficiency.
hyperMILL DRILLING
Holes can be machined from one direction or automatically from different directions. We can choose methods such as centered drilling, simple drilling, chip-breaking drilling, deep drilling, reaming, threading, and thread milling.
hyperMILL TURNING
The millTURN module, which is fully integrated into hyperMILL, allows users to freely use milling and turning strategies in the same software interface.
With a single CAM solution, we can prepare turning and milling programs with one setup on the appropriate machines.
With the module’s seamless integration, we can use common tool libraries, machining scrap models, collision control and post-processors for common turning and cutting programs.
