CCE Updates its Mastercam Interoperability Product to Support Mastercam X3

CCE, a provider of engineering software and services solutions, announced today that its CAD interoperability product for translating Unigraphics data (NX till NX5) to Mastercam (MC/Ug) has been updated to support Mastercam X3 files. This recent update also includes support for Windows Vista as well as the ability to import datum planes and coordinate systems directly into Mastercam as views.

MC/Ug is a C-Hook integrated into Mastercam and allows data exchange between the two systems. CCE claims MC/Ug cuts the time to generate tool paths from Unigraphics data by eliminating iterations between design and manufacturing due to lack of accurate and reliable data exchange. It can now be used by Mastercam users who work with Unigraphics data but do not have access to Unigraphics software.
