ICAM's History


ICAM started as a service organization focused primarily on NC Programming, Process Planning, and other related consulting services for the aerospace industry. As the market and demand grew for post-processing software, an in-house research and development department was added.

Based on APT technology, ICAM began creating and developing stronger, and even more sophisticated products to meet the needs of its growing client base. The first commercial version of ICAM's post-processor development tool, CAM-POST, was released in 1983. It supported the most common machine controls, including full five-axis machines, and operated on VAX/VMS platforms.

As the demand for NC post-processing technology increased, ICAM invested heavily in research and development, which generated innovative features such as a powerful macro language and support for four-axis lathes in 1987.

In 1991, a revolutionary motion post-processor was incorporated and support for Mill/Turn centers, Wire EDM, and Punch Presses were added to CAM-POST, which was quickly becoming the standard post processing solution for the largest manufacturers around the world.

ICAM’s success can also be attributed to the company’s focus on customer service and support. Where and when a client has had special needs, ICAM has always positioned the challenge as an opportunity to develop new solutions, thus staying ahead of shifts in the market. ICAM remains committed to working with both CAD/CAM and Machine Tool and Control manufacturers to develop new leading edge products and ISO standards whenever possible.

ICAM Corporate Milestones

1983
The first commercial version of ICAM's post-processor development tool, CAM-POST, is released. CAM-POST operated on VAX/VMS platforms and supported the most common machine controls, including full five-axis machines.

1991
The development of the revolutionary motion post-processor was incorporated, as well as the support for Mill/Turn centers, Wire EDM, and Punch Presses were added to CAM-POST.

1993 - 1996
The windows-like environment took shape with such additions as full mouse support, multi-language support, and a library of basic post-processors. ICAM created and developed ARC fitting, various CAD/CAM interface kits, on-line documentation, and support for Windows NT, Windows 3.1, Windows 95. ICAM further introduced an entirely new NC post development concept tool called Rapid Macro Development (RMD), a High Speed Machining functionality, DMIS support, and three-dimensional cutter compensation.

1997
CAM-POST Version 11.0 is released, incorporating an entirely new window front-end, which made it easier to use both the GENER and QUEST features. This allowed the user to actually create his own post processing solution.

1999
CAM-POST Version 12.0 is released, with enhanced support for High Speed Machining, Y2K compliance, expanded expert system, more NURBS fitting, tangential arc fitting, and LINTOL rotary turnaround.

2000
CAM-POST 2000 introduced a powerful graphical user interface tool called The Wizard, which allows users with all levels of expertise to create an unlimited number of NC Post-processors in record time.

2001
ICAM launches CAM-POST 2001. CAM-POST 2001 introduced of a fully automated Coordinate Frame Transformation feature, which enables the use of 2½ D cycles and controller feature on canted surfaces.

2002
Virtual Machine released in 2002 unites ICAM's advanced NC Post-Processing software CAM-POST with graphical machine tool simulation to create a single integrated solution.

2005
Airbus employed the latest release of the CAM-POST Sinumerik 840D CNC post-processor for its Airbus A380 Initiative. The advanced model is a five-axes mill post-processor, specifically designed for the aerospace industry, permitting tangential arc fitting, NURBS (non-uniform rational B-splines) fitting and interpolation, CIP (circular interpolation) oblique circular interpolation and standard canned cycles.

It supports RTCP point programming based on the 840D TRAORI (transformation orientation) function and local co-ordinates system programming. A key function is the support of the 840D customizable HSM (high-speed machining) feature, based on the Sinumerik CYCLE832.

2006
ICAM released CAM-POST V17, the latest version of its advanced independent single source NC post-processing development, management and deployment technology supporting all major CAD / CAM / PLM systems, CNC controllers and machine tools. Superior forward-looking optimization features are offered in CAM-POST V17 including path planning, rotary axes pre-positioning and winding to optimize machining while avoiding dwell marks, over-traveling and rotary repositioning.

Other CAM-POST V17 enhancements include support for multiple operating systems for full cross-platform compatibility, a new configuration utility that simplifies setup and maintenance of CAM-POST, direct access to the post-processor database from GENER, new Rapid Positioning Tool-tip Linearization and extensive context-sensitive on-line help from the Macro Editor.

2007
ICAM Releases Virtual Machine V17 Supporting Mill / Turn Centers
ICAM Technologies Corporation released Virtual Machine® V17, the latest version of its integrated graphical machine tool simulation / NC post-processing solution. Virtual Machine V17 features all the necessary software components to fully support Mill / Turn centers including the ability to synchronize dual turret merging lathes, the capacity to accurately simulate constant surface speed as well as the provision to define and model lathe tool inserts and generic 3D tool holders.

ICAM Releases Control Emulator for MCD-Based Machine Tool Simulation
ICAM Technologies Corporation released Control EmulatorTM (CE), a new software product allowing NC programmers to simulate and test NC programs using Machine Code Data (MCD) within the CATIA V5 / DELMIA environment. As compared to traditional APT-based verification systems, which simulate the programmer's planned tool path, CE provides a more meaningful simulation that represents how the machine tool will react to the MCD output generated by the post-processor.

2008
ICAM Introduces Integrated PSE
Integrated PSE is a new NC manufacturing methodology that allows for interactive post-processing, machine simulation and control emulation within a tightly integrated software solution which includes: CAM-POST®, Virtual Machine® and Control EmulatorTM.
