CnC head software ?

Maybe this will help you get it.

Since then the team's use of NX has expanded greatly, to the point that nearly every part and subassembly, including the entire engine, has been modeled in NX. The part library contains approximately 400 parts. "We're running 10 CNC machines 20 hours a day making parts for the cars," says Mark Bringle, the team's CNC manager. About 80 percent of those are replacements for parts that are worn out during races. The rest are new parts being designed for R&D purposes.

The beauty of this approach is that almost all parts can be made in-house very quickly. Also, big tasks like grinding ports out of the manifold and cylinder heads (to increase horsepower) are completed much faster now. "When we had guys grinding ports by hand it took 70 hours do complete a set," says Bringle. "Now, the CNC machine does it in seven hours." The shapes of the ports, which are complex surfaces, were modeled in Imageware, then used by NX Generative Machining as the basis for the CNC toolpaths.

"Chief engineer, Engine Operations, Jim Wall,
credits some of that success to the adoption
of I-deas® in the mid-1990s. This technology enabled HMS to reduce engine machining time and
achieve an unprecedented level of machining consistency. Production costs dropped as well.
These improvements correlated with success on the track. The first engines produced using
the new technology finished first, second and third at the Purolator 500. Since then, HMS has
expanded its use of NX to all parts of the car. Over time, however, more and more NASCAR
teams have also adopted CAD/CAM and HMS has sought other ways to preserve its
technology advantage using UGS."

The point is irrelevent. Raindrop could be sued for false advertisement if they were intentionally misrepresenting their involvement with RCR.

You obviously don't know how product promotion agreements work.

If this analogy was a good one then we might as well design a model of a port, chamber, coolant passage, ENTIRE cylinder head and cast our own.

Uhhhh, it has aleady been done hundreds of times for cars of all types.

You might want to read up on Ricardo, they probably developed the cylinder head in the car you drive.

Until then, you have a very expensive item targeted at a market that is driven by results. I see a big chance of failure there.

I guess that's why I actually make real parts that racers enjoy and help others to improve their methods while you tell me why me the work hundreds of people are already doing for a decade won't work.
