Vericut software (www.cgtech.com) is used to simulate CNC machiningin order to detect errors, potential collisions, or areas of inefficiency. Vericut enables NC programmers to reduce prove-outs, virtually eliminate errors, and optimize NC programs for faster, more efficient machining.
Vericut release 6.0 features several enhancements designed to increase the ability of manufacturing engineers to simulate the entire CNC machining process in order to produce better results and reduce the time spent in the programming and machining cycle.
New features include:
- the ability to view and configure multiple setups in a single session;
- the capability to simulate machines with multiple synchronized tools, spindles and auxiliary attachments;
- a redesigned tool manager that simplifies NC program optimization;
- an enhanced Model Export option that now outputs features where possible and also " synthetic features" when individual features are not possible or desirable (such as "scallops" created by a ball endmill);
- the ability to create CNC probe programs and inspection sequences.
Vericut runs under Windows and UNIX operating systems.
