Software Enhancements Increase Power and Improve Efficiency
CGTech’s Vericut 9.0 simulates real NC data on digital twin machines to prevent crashes, identify conflicts between setups and tooling, and ensure machined parts match engineering designs.
The software provides more ways to section the part, streamlines setup for toolpath optimization and significant enhancements for lathe and mill-turn tooling. Vericut’s force optimization reduces machining times up to 70%, even for superalloy metals. It enforces manufacturer’s recommended cutting conditions to greatly extend tool life. The software also detects collisions and near-misses between all machine tool components. It simulates all types of CNC machining, including drilling and trimming of composite parts, water jet, riveting, robots, mill/turn and parallel kinematics. The software operates independently but can also be integrated with leading CAM systems.
