Rethink your manufacturing process this unique all-in-one solution, streamlining the digital process of CNC machine programming
SPRING Technologies, vendor of software that optimizes the use of NC Machines, will present, with SAEILO Japan, for the 1st time on the Asia-Pacific market, its cutting-edge new module NCSIMUL CAM – part of its new platform NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS 10 -, at the:
MECT tradeshow, hall 3, booth B25, from October 21st to 24th, 2015.
The company's new product delivers agile and native CNC programming to streamline the current serial and iterative CAM process and provides unparalleled flexibility on the shop floor. NCSIMUL CAM directly generates verified and optimized CNC programs, while factoring in the physical resources available on the shop floor, including tools, cutting conditions, kinematics and machine controllers.
NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS V10 is more than just a new version: a technological milestone for manufacturing and production in the aircraft industry– unique and simple to operate. It facilitates a comprehensive, integrated control of the complete machining process, including: G-Code processing, G-code file simulation, Cutting and tool management, DNC G-code file management, Real time machine status monitoring, Technical content publication.
This unique approach, streamlining the complete end-to-end machining process, delivers the tools and flexibility required to build the Factory of the Future.
NCSIMUL CAM directly generates verified and optimized CNC programs, while factoring in the physical resources available on the shop floor, including tools, cutting conditions, kinematics and machine controllers.
With this new solution, CAM data (APT neutral file / CL-data) and existing CNC programs can be used easily to generate a valid new CNC program in just a few clicks for another machine using different kinematics and controller. This will enable manufacturers to quickly adapt their existing programs to new resources when retrofitting a machine, buying a new one or when a machining process is repurposed. With a conventional CAM process (CAM-Post-Processor-Machining Simulation), this task could take hours, even days. With NCSIMUL CAM, these times are slashed to minutes.
Likewise, if the target machine initially planned for the CAM program is no longer available for maintenance reasons or is already being used to meet production, it will take just one click with NCSIMUL CAM to switch programming to another machine – whatever its complexity (3X to 5X, 5X to 4X…), the type of kinematics (tilting head to table-on-table for instance) or the type of controller (FANUC, Siemens, Heidenhain…).
Thanks to the integration of NCSIMUL Tool database, NCSIMUL CAM provides a direct access to 3D tool data and cutting conditions and automatically reconfigures the tool magazine.
This will provide manufacturers with the level of flexibility they need to achieve rapid switching of scheduled production from one CNC machine to another, making their production means fully flexible and agile.
- “Hybrid” programming, taking the pain out of legacy re-use,
- Error-free programming in native NC code, for an all-in-one solution,
- No more external post-processor, streamlining the CAM process,
- One-click re-programming, for complete flexibility,
- Dynamic management of intermediary rough stocks for unrivalled programming comfort
