DMG Mori and Open Mind Technologies AG have entered into a global sales agreement to accelerate digital and machining transformation for customers worldwide.

As a strong advocate of Machining Transformation (MX), DMG Mori says it has led Digital Transformation (DX) worldwide, advancing process integration and automation. DMG MORI says that programming solutions must be fundamental to DX. 

Therefore, DMG MORI believes that partnering with Open Mind, one of the globally leading CAD/CAM and MES software developers, will generate significant synergies for both parties and markets, leading to further improvement. The hyperMILL product is a completely modular CAD/CAM solution that provides state-of-the-art CAM technologies on its own CAD platform: from 2.5D, 3D and 5-axis machining as well as turning strategies and solutions for additive manufacturing, HSC and HPC machining.

Both parties have established a certain number of local-affiliated companies in Asian market, and this each local entity is going to support global cooperation for each region. Technium Co. Ltd., one of the DMG MORI group of companies that provides software solutions, education, and e-commerce in the Japanese domestic market, becomes the entity to cooperate with each DMG Mori and Open Mind local entity, and boost sales across Asia.

The Japanese Technium and Open Mind Technologies Japan K.K. have been successfully collaborating for 10 years. In the next phase, their local organizations in the United States started cooperating in early 2025. The third phase will focus on expanding into the Asian markets, as well as Australia. A strong local collaboration between DMG MORI and the CAD/CAM specialists at Open Mind, supported comprehensively by Technium Japan, will form the foundation for successful market penetration in these regions. Further international collaborations are planned, continuing the path toward a truly global partnership.

The two parties will collaborate to facilitate sales opportunities and business-development activities and enhance global marketing communication. Both companies are focused on jointly promoting hyperMILL, one of the world’s leading CAD/CAM software solutions from Open Mind.

 Whether automation, simulation or virtual machine – trendsetting technologies expand the product range and enable continuous digital process chains. Special applications and seamless interaction with all popular CAD solutions and exceptional customer service round out the company’s products and capabilities. The innovative hyperMILL CAD/CAM technologies fulfill the highest demands in aerospace, automotive, tool and mold manufacturing, production machining, medical, job shops, energy and semiconductor industries.

  • turning

    turning

    Workpiece is held in a chuck, mounted on a face plate or secured between centers and rotated while a cutting tool, normally a single-point tool, is fed into it along its periphery or across its end or face. Takes the form of straight turning (cutting along the periphery of the workpiece); taper turning (creating a taper); step turning (turning different-size diameters on the same work); chamfering (beveling an edge or shoulder); facing (cutting on an end); turning threads (usually external but can be internal); roughing (high-volume metal removal); and finishing (final light cuts). Performed on lathes, turning centers, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and similar machines.
