CGTech to Demonstrate VERICUT 9.0 at WESTEC

At WESTEC 2019, VERICUT v9.0 will be featured in CGTech’s booth 1337. VERICUT simulates real NC data on digital twin machines to prevent crashes, identify conflicts between setups and tooling, and ensure machined parts match engineering designs.

“VERICUT 9.0’s all new graphics display ‘sets the bar’ for realism, providing crisper views that can be rotated or zoomed while cutting, and streamlined user actions in all views,” says VERICUT Product Manager, Gene Granata. “In v9.0, there’s more flexibility to display/hide machine and other components, enhanced Section, better translucency, and most users will experience gains in performance – especially in VERICUT’s free Reviewer app.

VERICUT 9.0 features several enhancements designed to increase power and improve efficiency. Save time with instant access to viewing the workpiece, CNC machine, or both. Improved connectivity to tooling websites and cloud repositories auto-configures VERICUT for optimization. Use major functions (like Section, X-Caliper and AUTO-DIFF) in any view and easily switch between Workpiece and Machine views, layouts and docking arrangements.

VERICUT 9.0 provides more and easier 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.

VERICUT detects collisions and near-misses between all machine tool components such as axis slides, heads, turrets, rotary tables, spindles, tool changers, fixtures, workpieces, cutting tools, and other user-defined objects. VERICUT 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.
