Connected Data - Your tool data plug-in for efficient CAD programming
What is Connected Data
You love being a CAD / CAM programmer and are familiar with the systems. You require not just technical know-how, but also tool data. You need reliable, comprehensive information – and you need it fast. However, the search for application values, technical dimensions, downloads or even the transfer from lists can be time-consuming and annoying!
This is exactly where Connected Data comes in, because we have extended our digital service "ToolScout" by adding a tool data plug-in for the CAM solution MasterCam: Via an interface you can import the required tool and cutting data into your CAD/CAM software at the click of a mouse. A convenient way to get comprehensive data in the CNC data format you require.
In practical terms, this means for you: Time savings in CNC programming, technological data and product data that is always up-to-date, error prevention through direct import and a significant reduction in the amount of work involved in CNC programming.

Customer opinions on Hoffmann Group Connected Data
Household article manufacturer Koziol saves time in CNC programming
"What I think is really important is the data reliability and geometry accuracy. The plugin supplies me with geometry from my tool one-to-one.’ So I know exactly what my object will look like in the end, and that’s just brilliant. This, too, cuts time. And also provides better, reliable data."
