CGTech highlights the latest version of its flagship software, Vericut 9.5, equipped with postprocessing software, ICAM V25 and a standalone optimization product, Vericut Optimizer (VO).

The latest features and enhancements to elevate precision, efficiency and user experience in CNC manufacturing include:

Vericut 9.5 introduces several key enhancements, including a new Heat Map in the Tool Summary window for visualizing tool wear patterns, enabling better tool life tracking. CNC Machine Connectivity enables real-time data visibility and post-machining analysis, with support for connecting to FANUC, OKUMA, Siemens and Heidenhain controlled CNC machines. The update also improves coordinate system management with interactive Transform menus, simplifying object placement. Vericut 9.5 also adds support for the latest CAM versions and enhances CAM interfaces for better automation and advanced tool simulation.

ICAM V25 offers enhanced support for multi-channel mill-turn operations, optimization features like SmartCUT and SmartPATH, improved singularity avoidance and advanced motion optimization capabilities. It also adds a new CL-oriented look-ahead function, virtual machine enhancements and integration with GibbsCAM. Additionally, ICAM V25 now supports offline license use, offers improved 3D scene manipulation, and provides online documentation. These updates streamline postprocessing, enhance simulation accuracy, and improve overall user experience.

Vericut Optimizer focuses on optimizing cutting processes to reduce cycle times, improve tool life and enhance part quality. VO is designed to enhance machining performance while minimizing costs and doesn’t require Vericut to run. This powerful optimization tool seamlessly integrates with any CAM system’s NC Program output, enabling manufacturers to optimize their NC programs with just a few clicks, ensuring compatibility and increased efficiency with standard two-axis, three-axis, or four or five-axis CNC machines.
