Vericut NC-Simulation Software
Vericut is software that simulates NC machining. It detects errors that could ruin the part, damage the fixture, break the cutting tool, or crash the machine.
Vericut enables NC programmers to be certain the finished part will match the original design intent -- without doing a single prove-out! Vericut works with G-codes and output from CAM systems.
Benefits of Vericut software:
- Save time
Reduce or eliminate prove-outs and save machine tool, operator, and part programming time -- all of which decrease time-to-market. - Increase quality
Verify dimensional accuracy and optimize tool paths for better finishes on surfaces and edges. - Save money
Reduce or eliminate the cost of machine tool crashes, rework, scrapped parts, and damaged tooling, fixtures, and clamps. - Increase productivity
Reduce machining times and interrupt production less frequently. - Build confidence
Test part programs on a computer so they run right the first time and operators don't need to keep one hand on the "emergency stop" button. - Conserve resources
Reduce machine tool wear. Reduce cutting tool wear so cutting tools can be used longer before needing to be reground or replaced. - Improve documentation Enable operators and managers to preview all machining operations.
Capabilities of Vericut Software:
When we talk about "NC simulation/verification" we are really talking about four distinctive functions. If you're shopping for a "NC simulation/verification" program, make sure it incorporates all of the following.- NC Simulation
Vericut features full 3D, solid model, shaded simulation of entire NC machine tools and material removal. This excellent visualization tool enables programmers and machinists alike to preview exactly what will happen on the shop floor and check for collisions. Many use Vericut for electronic shop floor documentation. - NC Verification
Vericut detects problems in the NC tool path program. It is a powerful visual inspection tool which highlights fast feed errors, gouges, and potential crashes/collisions. Programmers can detect and correct problems before prove-out. With Vericut you can virtually eliminate NC program mistakes, greatly reduce the time spent on prove-outs, and make the move to "lights-out" machining. - NC Analysis
Vericut identifies the tool path record responsible for an error. You can quickly verify the dimensional accuracy of the entire part with a full array of 3D measurement tools. Vericut compares the simulated part to the design model so you can be sure the machined part will match the design intent. Vericut performs constant gouge-checking. - NC Optimization
Vericut automatically determines the best feed rate for each segment of the tool path based on the machining conditions and amount of material removed. Optimizing NC feed rates greatly reduces the time it takes to machine parts and improves the quality of surface finish. Vericut is the only product that offers automatic feed rate optimization.
