Direct Interface for Machining Simulation
CGTech and DP Technology have developed the Esprit-to-Vericut interface.
CGTech and DP Technology have developed the Esprit-to-Vericut interface. The new interface launches the Vericut NC verification, machine simulation and optimization software from within the Esprit 2012 CAM system. Designed for complex CNC machines and machining processes supported by Esprit users, it accurately simulates the CNC machine and material removal using the actual NC code. The interface provides a comprehensive solution that helps prevent errors on the shop floor, avoiding material scrap, machine damage, broken tools and wasted time, the companies say.
