Software/Simulation

HEEDS AI Simulation Predictor and Simcenter Reduced Order Modeling represent a true breakthrough in simulation technology. They enable our customers to take advantage of benefits of artificial intelligence-driven simulation to speed their exploration of a design space and to do so accurately and robustly,

VERICUT 9.4 introduces a new module, CNC Machine Monitoring, which connects VERICUT directly to CNC machines and streams data to allow users to monitor what their machines are doing on the shop floor, live in real time. Users can see which NC program or subroutine is running, monitor machine motions and spindle activity, see if overrides have been applied to spindle or feedrates, identify when machining has been interrupted by Emergency stops or taken out of productive cycle mode, and much more, all within VERICUT.

Users can choose between the climb or conventional cutting methods and define the contact point between the tool and the workpiece, e.g. in the middle of the flute. This is relevant for non-ball cutters like chamfer mills where careful control over the cutting conditions creates chamfered edges with a high quality finish.

The primary focus for IMSpost and IMSverify 8.4 was improved performance and enhanced user productivity through user interface enhancements. Updates to IMSverify include: New variable pane for display and monitoring of controller variables, including a new watch window. Debugging of subprograms.

HxGN Machine Trainer is based on the new generation of NCSIMUL and I++simulation software, combining software and hardware to create a solution that is practical and easy to learn. Based on modeled machine kinematic Digital Twins, the HxGN Machine Trainer presents numerous learning opportunities using realistic simulations for 3-to-5 axis milling, mill-turn and CMM operation. Specific situations such as collisions or machine restarts can be emulated to mimic operational or emergency procedures.
