VERICUT

VERICUT software simulates CNC machining so you can detect collisions and errors before the program is loaded on the machine and eliminate manual prove-outs! VERICUT also optimises NC program cutting speeds for more efficient machining, even for high speed machines!

  • Simulate Multiple Setups in a Single Session
  • Create CNC Probe Programs & Inspection Sequences
  • Simulate Synchronized CNC Controls
  • Enhanced Model Export features
  • VERICUT is sold in a modular format. The add-on modules add capabilities to the base Verification module.

 

 

Why VERICUT is better than internal CAM verification.

Tool path verification and optimization are two of the best ways you can dramatically improve your manufacturing operation and save money... with relatively little work.

You may be tempted to use the embedded verification that came with your CAM system. But be careful... not all verification software is created equal.

A single mistake can scrap a part, break a cutter, crash a machine, or even cause an injury!

Can you really trust your machining to a "visual check" from an internal program?

Ask yourself the following questions, and see you'll see why a verification external to your CAD/CAM system is crucial.

What are You Really Checking?

An external verification system can verify G-codes.

Integrated verification systems are limited to checking the internal CAM file... which is then translated one or more times before going to the machine.

An internal check is really just part of the programming process – it does not replace the need for real simulation of the post-processed NC code!

Do You Trust Your Results?

External check is more trustworthy.

A CAM system checking it's own tool path is like a student grading his/her own test. There is too much on the line when you send a new program to the shop floor. Can you trust it to an internal check?

Whose Software is it Really?

CAD/CAM systems often "license" verification technology from other companies.

Development is out of their control. Bugs are out of their control. Enhancements are out of their control. If it is developed in-house, only a fraction of development time can be devoted to verification because their business focuses mainly on CAD/CAM software.

And, because the product is likely integrated licensed technology, are you going to get quality technical support when you need it?

Can the Internal System Simulate Real Situations?

VERICUT accurately simulates your real machining environment and process!
VERICUT is dedicated simulation & verification software, and the most full-featured verification solution available. Simulate your exact machining environment, including: precise multi-axis and rapid motion, multiple setups, complex tool shapes, holder collisions, fixture collisions, machine kinematics, complex controller functions, etc...

How About Flexibility & Consistency?

Can an internal verification program verify output from other CAM systems?
Using VERICUT enables you to use the same system to check tool paths from any CAM system, as well as manually programmed G-codes.

You achieve consistent, trustworthy verification across all your CAM systems. Also... can an internal system check code modified outside the CAM program?

What is Your CAM System Doing?

Using an external verification system does not tie up a seat of CAM software while it's running.

Your CAM system should be doing what it's designed for, and what you bought it for: generating tool paths.

What about Additional Capabilities?

To protect your investment and improve your machining process, verification must be much more than a simple "visual check."

Can your CAM system do this? VERICUT can:

  • Simulate entire CNCs to check for collisions... "See" the future! VERICUT simulations are driven by the same control logic and data that drive your machines, so you know that what happens on the screen is what will happen on the machine.
  • Compare "as-machined" cut part with the original design model... so you know that the part you cut will be the part that was designed.
  • Optimize tool paths... improve your programmed feed rates so your tool paths are faster, more efficient, cause less cutter wear, and produce better surface finishes.
  • VERICUT is a single NC data verification and optimization solution that can be used with ALL your CNC machines!
  • Export "as-machined" CAD model... close the loop on manufacturing by bringing the as-machined part you cut back into your CAD system for designing mating parts, determining subsequent operations, etc.

Vericut Virtual Machining Gallery available in either CD or DVD format.

The gallery is designed to show the wide range of CNC Machine Tools and applications which can be simulated using Vericut. The gallery features animations showing the simulation of CNC machine tools from many of the world's leading manufacturers including Mazak, Mori Seiki, Matsuura, Makino, Starrag Heckert, DIXI, DMG, Hermle, JOBS and many more.

The applications simulated come from many industries including aerospace and defence, oil and gas, automotive, motor sport and consumer goods. With the increased use of High Spindle Speed CNC machines, 5 axis machining centres and Mill/Turn centres, simulation and verification of CNC machining processes is becoming much more common.

Users are able to dramatically reduce or eliminate machine prove-out time by testing programs in a virtual machining environment. Vericut can also be used to optimise the machining processes by testing alternative machining strategies and optimising feed rates.

The Vericut Virtual Machining gallery also features integration with many of the leading CAD/CAM and PLM systems including Catia, Unigraphics, PTC, EdgeCAM and MasterCAM. Vericut is NC verification/optimisation software that enables users to eliminate the process of manually proving-out NC programs.

It reduces scrap loss and rework. The program also optimises NC programs in order to produce the most efficient CNC programs possible to save time and produce higher quality surface finishes.

Vericut can simulate milling, drilling, turning, wire EDM, and mill/turn machining operations.
