Griffo Brothers’ GB\GeoSolid software program extracts part geometry information from SolidWorks into Mazatrol.
Griffo Brothers’ GB\GeoSolid software program extracts part geometry information from SolidWorks into Mazatrol. The software is said to reduce programming time and prevent programming errors by extracting information directly from the SolidWorks model rather than only 2D data. According to the company, the program helps automate the creation of WPC shift, making it easy to apply Mazatrol programming to any face.
