My background is in Production Engineering and Computer Aided Manufacture.

I joined Pathtrace in 1988 and have worked with Pathtrace software ever since. Working as a support engineer and applications engineer I gained a lot more experience with the more complex end of Production engineering.

Complex parts require a good working knowledge of..

	Complex machine tools such as 5-axis. Examples are Tosnuc, Huron and Deckel
	Complex Mill / Turn machine tools with B-axis, Y-axis, C-axis, Twin spindles, Twin Turrets. Examples are Mori Seiki MT lathes and Maxak Integrex

3D models require a good working knowledge of..

	Machining free form parts
	Efficiently machining of prismatic
	Bang up to date machining cycles

Prismatic parts with medium complexity require a good working knowledge of..

	Tooling
	What it takes to production engineer a part
	Efficient use of CAM software in all disciplines

The majority of my work also requires a good working knowledge of..

	Configuring EdgeCAM
	Machine Tool controls
