OEM Thermwood enters 2026 with practical, production-focused insights shared through a new video series: “You Betcha”.
The educational video program covers topics such as CNC tips and controls, software tools, LSAM additive manufacturing, CutLayer technology, and 3 Axis and 5 Axis CNC systems.
In the debut episode, Thermwood tackles one of the most frequently asked questions in CNC manufacturing. “If I have a CNC program written for another brand of machine, can I run it on a Thermwood?” The answer is simple. You betcha.
The episode explains why the CNC controller is the true brain of the machine and how controller design directly impacts flexibility, performance, and long-term support. Thermwood highlights a key differentiator in the industry. Its ULTRA 6 SuperControl is designed, built, and supported in Dale, Indiana, along with the software that runs it. Unlike many CNC controls developed and sourced overseas, Thermwood’s in-house control and software development allows for deeper integration, faster innovation, and unmatched adaptability, Thermwood explains.
While we’re eager to hear the questions manufacturers will ask about Large Scale Additive Manufacturing, the first video feels a bit like opening the front door before the real conversation begins. It takes viewers inside Thermwood’s headquarters and sets the tone of the workplace: welcoming, hands-on, and refreshingly down-to-earth.
Much like asking a knowledgeable friend to explain something complex over a cup of coffee, the team uses familiar expressions and conversational language to tackle manufacturers’ biggest questions, showing from the outset that even the most complicated topics don’t have to feel mysterious.
