REDUCE MACHINING TIME WITH OPTIMAL PATHS FOR BAR MILLS

• Machining path optimization based on the profile of the tool in contact with
the part, which saves machining time on the machine.

SAVE PROGRAMMING TIME WITH THE ALL-NEW AUTOMATIC ROUGHING

STRATEGY ON 5 POSITIONED AXES.
• Integration of a new operation for automatic roughing of parts in 5
positioned axes.
• This operation is unique because it automatically finds the optimal paths to
remove all the material and avoid collisions.
• The 3+2 automatic roughing combines all this in one cycle, and parts with
many undercuts can be machined more easily.
• It is a real time saver in terms of both programming and productivity while
remaining safe.

USE THE FULL POTENTIAL OF YOUR 2+ AXIS LATHE TO MAKE LARGE

THREADS.
• The profile threading cycle is a new roughing and finishing strategy.
• It allows a thread to be machined on a lathe, the geometry of which can be
defined by any profile.
• In addition, this new operation works with standard turning tools such as ISO
or grooved inserts.

CONTROL THE CHANGES MADE IN THE WORKSHOP WHEN SETTING UP

PROGRAMS ON THE MACHINE.
• This new feature simplifies communication between the Process Planning
Department and the workshop.
• You can rapidly visualize all the differences between the reference program and
those modified and adjusted in the workshop.
• The programmer can easily choose between keeping the workshop settings or
the Process Planning Department

MINIMIZE THE NUMBER OF PART REWORKS AT A GLANCE WITH THIS

NEW TOOL FOR ANALYZING GEOMETRIES WHICH ARE REACHABLE BY
THE MACHINE
• This analysis lets you quickly visualize the geometries on the finished part,
which can be reached and machined by the machine used.
• This feature helps the programmer define the optimal positioning of the part
to machine it to the maximum with minimum reworking, and also to see what
still needs to be machined during the sequence creation.
