Millwright in ACMEE 2025: CNC Setup & Programming Made Easy

in news

At Millwright Techserv Pvt Ltd, an authorized Esprit CAM reseller in South India for more than 10 years. Our participation in ACMEE 2025 centered on one mission. Reducing skill dependency in CNC machine shops through smart automation and intelligent CAM software.

As the theme suggested, our focus was on “Programming Without Skilled Programmers”, powered by Esprit CAM, NCBox, and SetSmart — proven CAM automation solutions for milling, turning, multitasking, multi-axis, and Swiss-style machining.

A Grand Beginning

Dr. Arvind A.R., our chief guest at ACMEE 2025, inaugurated our stall and joined us for a brief but insightful Q&A session. During the session, he asked a powerful question: Why are young engineers hesitant to enter the CNC field?

His answer encouraged the industry to shift perception — from seeing CNC as a labor-intensive trade to viewing it as a technology-driven, automation-first career.

We at Millwright, your trusted Esprit CAM dealer in South India, fully share that vision. Our work across Chennai, Coimbatore, Hosur, Bangalore, and Hyderabad reflects how digital twin CNC simulation and CAM software for CNC machining are making manufacturing smarter, faster, and less dependent on rare expertise.

  • Programming without skilled programmers through EspritCAM and NCBox
  • On-machine probing and offset corrections
  • Setup automation using SetSmart and smart workholding

This vision set the tone for five days of innovation and insight at ACMEE 2025.

What We Showcased: Automation Without Skill Dependence

At Stall D9 in D Hall, we showcased how Esprit CAM software in India empowers shops to program and set up CNC machines with ease — no matter the skill level.

Programming Without Skilled Programmers

With NCBox and Esprit CAM, we demonstrated that CNC programming software India can be intelligent and easy to use:

  • Esprit CAM software: Delivers AI-driven toolpaths, multi-axis machining software capability, and digital twin simulation, ideal for milling and turning centers, multitasking CNC machines, and Swiss-style machining.
  • NCBox: Simplifies data flow with wireless NC transfer and built-in automation, minimizing human intervention.

As a long-time Esprit CAM reseller with training and local support, Millwright helps manufacturers reduce dependency on skilled CAM programmers while improving consistency and cycle times.

Setup Changes Without Skilled Setters

ThWe also addressed the challenge of manual setups through EZOffset, SetSmart, and modular workholding.

  • EZOffset – one-click offset handling without manual entry
  • SetSmart – monitors real-time setup accuracy and consistency
  • Renishaw Probes, 5th Axis vises, and Jergens Clamps – enable modular, repeatable setups

With these systems, even complex fixture changes can be handled by basic manpower — showing the real power of CAM software for milling and turning operations when combined with smart hardware.

The Energy at Stall D9

Hundreds of visitors — from MSME owners to plant heads and young engineers — visited our booth.
Many shared a common issue: skilled manpower is getting harder to find.
Our Esprit CAM automation solutions offered a clear path forward — simpler, more reliable CNC operations with local technical support across South India.

Many shopfloor leaders shared a common pain: skilled manpower is getting harder to find. And our solutions — designed to reduce that dependency — struck a chord across industries.

A Booth That Clicked — Literally!

We also launched a LinkedIn photo campaign from our booth to celebrate each visitor who engaged with our mission.
This initiative extended ACMEE 2025 online, strengthening our community of manufacturers embracing Esprit CAM automation for Indian CNC shops.

This campaign was not just a celebration — it became a conversation starter online, extending the ACMEE experience beyond the halls of the expo.

Maximizing Spindle Probe Potential with On-Machine Verification (OMV)

in news

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, precision is everything. On-Machine Verification (OMV) is a game-changing solution that combines hardware and software to improve machining accuracy and efficiency. By integrating spindle probes with Edgecam Inspection software, OMV allows manufacturers to verify your parts on machine, reduce errors, and optimize production processes directly on CNC machines.

What is On-Machine Verification (OMV)?

OMV is a system that leverages spindle probes and advanced software to create NC programs for machining centers using 3D models. The system provides real-time feedback after probing, generating detailed Excel reports with critical part dimensions. This helps manufacturers maintain high-quality standards while minimizing rework and scrap.

Unlocking the Full Potential of Spindle Probes

Spindle probes are typically used for setting work offsets in CNC machines. However, OMV takes this a step further by using the same probes for measuring part dimensions as well. This maximizes the potential of the probes, allowing them to serve a dual purpose—both for setting work origins and for conducting precise dimensional inspections.

For companies that already have spindle probes installed in their machines, implementing OMV provides an added advantage. Instead of investing in additional measurement tools, manufacturers can fully utilize their existing probes for real-time, on-machine quality verification. Measure your component on Machine.

Key Benefits of On-Machine Verification (OMV)

1. Work Origin Determination

  • Probes reference points on the workpiece or fixture.
  • Establishes precise work origin across all machine axes.

2. Part Seating Verification

  • Ensures correct alignment and seating of the part on the fixture.
  • Reduces errors caused by misalignment or improper fixturing.

3. Part Identification

  • Confirms the correct part is loaded onto the machine.
  • Minimizes production errors by verifying the right program and tooling.

4. 3D Model-Based NC Program Generation

  • Utilizes 3D model data to generate NC programs for inspection.
  • Ensures accurate machining based on CAD models.

5. Dimensional Measurement & Inspection

OMV measures various part dimensions with high precision, including:

  • Bore diameter
  • Boss dimensions
  • Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD)
  • Plane dimensions
  • Angles
  • Depth
  • Width
  • Gap measurements
  • And more, depending on specific requirements

Part measurement with Renishaw probes and Edgecam inspect.

How OMV Improves Manufacturing Efficiency

By integrating spindle probes and Edgecam Inspection software, OMV eliminates the need for manual measurement processes, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity. Manufacturers benefit from:

  • Faster in-process quality control
  • Reduced reliance on external measurement tools
  • Improved consistency and accuracy
  • Immediate feedback on machining deviations

Conclusion

On-Machine Verification (OMV) is revolutionizing CNC machining by integrating real-time inspection directly into the production process. By leveraging spindle probes to their fullest potential, OMV enables manufacturers to not only set work origins but also measure part dimensions with precision.
For companies that already have spindle probes installed, implementing OMV is an excellent way to maximize their existing investment while achieving higher accuracy and efficiency in machining.
Works like CMM but not CMM.
Measure your component on Machine.
Are you looking to enhance your machining accuracy? Implement OMV today and experience the future of precision manufacturing!
