A MecSoft Corporation Case Study
Allstar Tactical, a custom firearms manufacturer, utilized MecSoft Corporation's RhinoCAM software to overcome the challenge of efficiently programming and machining complex components for their AR-15 platform rifles. Faced with the need to produce intricate parts like their proprietary HEXCON0 muzzle brake, the company required a powerful yet user-friendly CAM solution that could generate the necessary toolpaths for their CNC milling center.
The solution from MecSoft Corporation involved using RhinoCAM's 2.5 Axis toolpaths to create four distinct machining setups for the HEXCON0, including facing, pocketing, drilling, and tapping operations. This streamlined process allowed Allstar Tactical to efficiently machine the part from stainless steel bar stock, ensuring precision for features that control propellant gas dispersion to reduce recoil and improve accuracy. By implementing RhinoCAM, the vendor provided a system that was preferred for its superior interface and ease of use, enabling the customer to successfully bring their specialized product designs to market.
