CAD/CAM Sys. Gets New Modeling Tools

10/01/96

ANVIL-5000, a mechanical CADD/CAM/CAM system used in community colleges and universities, debuts Ver. 5.1. Version 5.1 has new functional-ity in two areas: CAM and relational/parametric modeling. For instance, users can now cut verti-cal and nearly vertical multiple surfaces in a single tool path; and use ball, flat, bull-nose or tapered cutters in 5-axis swarf cuts. Four new constraints have been added to both the 2D and 3D editions of ANVIL Intelligent Modeler (AIM) for greater control over design parameters. The wire EDM module is also improved. Manufacturing and Consulting Services, Inc., Scottsdale, AZ, (602) 932-9329.

In-Building Wireless Reference Architecture

In Building Wireless (IBW) involves the distribution of wireless signals inside buildings to provide data and voice connectivity. IBW can provide a direct wireless signal from cellphone carriers into the building using small cells or a Distributed Antenna System (DAS). A DAS is a network of antennas that sends and receives cellular signals on a carrier’s licensed frequencies, thereby improving voice and data connectivity for end users. Lack of capacity and coverage are the two main performance issues that an IBW deployment can resolve. Understanding what they mean is essential to comparing and choosing the right IBW technology.
