For companies that regularly need to make the same part but at different dimensions, JETCAM's Parametric Programming option can revolutionize the component creation and ordering process.
Parametric Programming provides a simple scripting language that allows you to prompt the user to enter basic part dimensions. The program can then draw bespoke geometry based on that input. For example, a door may always have a lock and hinges in fixed positions but may be of different sizes.
The Automatic Parametrics option takes this a step further, allowing you to feed the parametrics engine with a list of component names, along with their bespoke parameters and order quantities.
Once you've created your parametric programs, you can easily configure your ERP system to output all the information you need to completely automate the component creation, tooling and ordering process, going from input to NC code within minutes or even seconds.

Create complex component designs, with circles, notches or whatever else you need just by entering the most basic parameters.
Use the Automatic Parametrics option to queue up unlimited parametric components to create, along with the quantity required.
Parametrics relies on JETCAM's powerful auto-tooling, and will also apply 'taught' tooling where appropriate.
Users can run through the same parametric program with different parameters and order quantities, quickly populating the order list.
Pull in geometry from separate files to merge them with your new component file, further reducing your workload.
Get external systems such as MRP, ERP or MES to generate the scripts and data for ful automation. Also supported by JOC Premium Automation.
