Integration of CAD design
Integration of CAD design with CAM workflows to optimize part manufacturing on CNC machines. We prepare 3D models for machining simulation, validate toolpaths, and generate NC code tailored to specific equipment. We support post-processor development and machining parameter optimization to reduce cycle time and avoid manufacturing errors. Solutions cover both individual parts and complex multi-axis processes.
Validate CNC machining processes for aerospace components
Validate & de-risk CNC machining processes for high-value aerospace components.
Eliminate costly collisions, reduce setup time & remove manual prove-outs.
Optimize NC (Numerical Control) programs for enhanced efficiency & tool life.
Solver: Ansys Speos
G-Code Simulation: Simulate the exact NC program (G-code) executed on the CNC machine, creating a digital twin of the machining environment.
Collision Detection: Identify potential collisions between machine components, tooling, fixtures, & workpiece, including near-misses & axis over-travels.
Process Optimization (Vericut FORCE): Analyze cutting conditions cut-by-cut to optimize feed rates, maximize chip thickness, reduce cycle times & extend tool life without altering the CAM-generated toolpath.
Reduced NC Program prove-out time: Significant NCost savings from avoided collisions, scrapped parts, & machine damage.
Increased Machine Up-time & Throughput: Optimized & verified NC programs enable faster, more reliable machining.
Enhanced Part Quality & Tool Life: Vericut FORCE optimization ensures consistent cutting conditions, improving surface finish & reducing tool wear.
