Description

Cut3D serves as a specialized toolpath generator for CNC machining, tailored for 3D models crafted in software like AutoCAD, Rhino3D, and 3D Studio, or those obtained through laser or touch probe scanning. Its user-friendly interface guides you seamlessly through various stages, including model loading, size adjustments, tab placement to secure the workpiece, and the generation of roughing and finishing toolpaths, whether single, double, or four-sided. After calculating these paths, you can preview the outcome and then save the generated CNC code for operation on your machinery. For 3D models that exceed the machining capabilities due to constraints like gantry height or cutter length, Cut3D offers the option to 'slice' them into manageable sections that can be individually machined and later assembled into the final product. The software also boasts robust import filters compatible with most industry-standard mesh file formats, ensuring versatility in model handling, and includes standard postprocessors that cater to nearly all CNC machine control systems. This comprehensive support makes Cut3D a valuable asset for those looking to efficiently execute intricate machining tasks.

Description

Predator Virtual CNC software simulates and verifies the operation of your CNC machines from your computer. Simulating the machining process offline can help you save time, money, scrapped parts, tool breaks, and machine crashes. It also improves safety and productivity. Predator Virtual CNC™, supports all standard vertical, horizontal, and complex machine configurations with 2-5 axis. Our flexible reverse post processors allow for user-definable machine tool configurations. This allows standard VMCs as well as HMCs to work with us. All standard milling, turning, and drilling cycles are supported. Advanced cycles, such as subs, macros and variables, logic codes, and trig codes, are all supported. Predator Virtual CNC is optimized to 3-axis surface milling and can handle large files without running out. Processing speeds of up to 3,000 blocks per minute are possible, while maintaining the required accuracy. Predator Virtual CNC 5 Axis also offers 3+2 support.
