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.
Description
SOLIDWORKS® CAM, which is powered by CAMWorks, employs rules-based technology to seamlessly merge design and manufacturing within a single application, fostering collaboration between design and manufacturing teams through a unified software tool and 3D model. This add-on for all SOLIDWORKS CAD versions allows for earlier preparation of designs for manufacturability during the development cycle. Tasks related to manufacturing that previously required the completion of a design can now be executed simultaneously with the design phase. As a result, SOLIDWORKS CAM solutions facilitate a swift transition from design to manufacturing via an integrated workflow. The SOLIDWORKS CAM Standard version enables quick programming of individual milled parts and configurations directly within the SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD environment, ensuring efficiency. Users also have comprehensive control over establishing rules within SOLIDWORKS CAM to align with their company standards and implement Tolerance-Based Machining (TBM), ultimately enhancing productivity and consistency in the manufacturing process. This integration represents a significant advancement in how design and manufacturing can work together harmoniously.
