Workstation-Class Multisurface Machining Available to PC Users

Mastercam Mill Version 5 includes ToolMaker from CIMLINC

November 14, 1994 -- TOLLAND, CT,--CNC Software, Inc. has added
workstation-class machining to its Mastercam Mill software. The
multi-surface machining utility ToolMaker from CIMLINC AMT is integrated
with the latest Mastercam release, Mastercam Mill Version 5. This puts
high-end machining functions within reach of PC-based CAD/CAM users.

CNC Software, Inc., develops Windows-based design and machining software
for PC's, while CIMLINC develops software for UNIX workstations. The two
companies worked together to bring CIMLINC's ToolMaker utility to
Mastercam's PC platform. Mastercam now offers the same gouge-free
multi-surface machining that was previously available only with more
expensive software and hardware.

"We've included ToolMaker in the new Mastercam release to give our
customers fast, gouge-free roughing and finishing of highly complex
parts," says Mark Summers, vice president of CNC Software, Inc. "This
release creates new business opportunities for PC-based CAD/CAM users by
letting them take on jobs that weren't possible before."

Multi-surface functions include roughing and finishing, flow-line
machining, Z-planer machining with lead-in and lead-out, and linear or
helical entry for roughing. Functions support square, ball and bullnose
cutters. The new release also includes definable containment machining,
allowing users to quickly select a specific area of a part to be cut.

Mastercam Mill is available in several levels to give NC programmers a
choice of machining capabilities. The new gouge-free multi-surface
functions are included in Mastercam Mill Level 3.

CNC Software offers a complete family of Mastercam CAD/CAM systems for
2-through 5-axis milling, lathes, 2-and 4-axis wire EDM, lasers, and 3-D
design and drafting.

CNC Software, Inc. is a privately owned corporation founded in 1984. With
more than 22,000 installations in 56 countries, the U.S.-based company
supports their products with a worldwide network of trained Mastercam
resellers. For more information about CNC Software, Inc. and its Mastercam
