HURCO WINMAX CONTROL

NEW Hurco WinMax Control - All Controls Are Not The Same!

Hurco understands the extreme challenges you face each day — more complexity at every turn and less time to get the job done. You can't clone yourself. You can't work any faster — the only way to stay competitive is to invest in the right technology.

A Hurco integrated control with WinMax® is the best option to yield immediate productivity gains and long-term technology benefits.

The control software: WinMax is power packed with new features to increase productivity and provide consistently improved surface finish. Many of these features qualify as Process Automation Software that will save you significant amounts of programming time and manual process steps. As always with Hurco, you'll benefit from the most flexible control in the industry — you get both conversational and NC programming standard with our control.

The Control Software

WinMax® control software is proprietary software that is based on an open architecture system. Whether a control's software is "open" or "closed" matters for the future. Because WinMax uses the proven platform of Microsoft® Windows®, it is more likely to be compatible with future technology. A closed software system is exactly what it sounds like — closed to improvement, closed to external compatibility, and closed to compatibility with future technology advancements.

Flexibility is the hallmark of the Hurco control. Why should you be boxed in or forced to choose between G-Code or shop floor programming. WinMax lets you decide the best way to approach each job — G-Code, conversational, or send the CAD file directly to the control with DXF Transfer.

In the world of CNC machine tools, Process Automation equals software features that are relevant to your operation and save you time. WinMax includes 25 new features designed to save you time and provide consistent surface finish quality. Additionally, Hurco invested thousands of hours in testing and rewriting code in order to streamline programming and eliminate redundancy — and that will save you time, minimize data entry errors, and might even save you some frustration.

Control consoles that epitomize ergonomic design

With most consoles you face a barrage of buttons with tiny labels that require sustained squinting to decipher. Hurco takes ergonomics seriously. After all, if you spend the majority of your workweek at our control, shouldn't it be designed with your comfort in mind? We think so. That's why you can immediately see the difference in the way Hurco designed the control's console — big buttons that are easy to press with labels that make sense and you can easily see and a high quality color LCD screen that is tilted and rotates to minimize glare.

Your comfort is important, but the ergonomic design of the console also facilitates faster programming, reduces the learning curve for new hires, reduces errors, and gives you more control over the entire process. The resolution and touch-screen capability of the LCD screens support the powerful Advanced Verification Graphics and graphical user interface that is integral to the new WinMax Control Software. Both the single-screen console (MAX) and the dual-screen (UltiMax) will make you wonder how you ever survived with those clunky consoles on other controls.
