Complementary to other V5 NC Manufacturing solutions, this product brings newfunctionalities in order to cover the entire machining process in addition to existing key functionalities thatspeed up skill oriented operations. All these functionalities overtake previous version CATIA NCManufacturing solutions, and therefore surpass existingall-in-oneCAM systems.Advanced Machining offers the following main functions:qAccurate tool path definition through a full set of 2.5 to 5 axis milling and drilling machining capabilitiesqQuick tool path definition thanks to an intuitive user interfaceFlexible management of tools and tool catalogsDefinition of machining areas including multi-thickness areasCheck and repair tool holder collisionsQuick verification of tool pathIn-process part visualization and material removal simulation in multi-axis modeTool path editorFast tool path update after modificationSeamless NC data generationAutomatic shop-floor documentationManagement of NC related documentsMulti-CAD managementIntegration with DELMIANC know-how capitalization and reuseProductive design change management.qqqqqqqqqqqqqqCertain portions of this product contain elements subject to copyright owned by the following entities:©©©©©©CopyrightCopyrightCopyrightCopyrightCopyrightCopyrightLightWork Design Ltd., all rights reserved.Deneb Robotics Inc., all rights reserved.Cenit, all rights reserved.Intelligent Manufacturing Software, all rights reserved.WALTER Informationssysteme GmbH, all rights reserved.ICAM Technologies Corporation, all rights reserved.Advanced MachiningVersion 5 Release 12Page 3What's New?New Functionalities5-axis Helix machining operation for turbo bladesNew operation suitable for milling turbo-machinery blades.Enhanced FunctionalitiesEnhancements brought to 2.5-axis machining operationsGroove Milling operationNew operation dedicated to roughing and finishing grooves with a T-slotter.Ramping macro with intermediate levels for PocketingCapability to include intermediate horizontal paths in ramping approach macro.New Compensation option in Curve FollowingSpecifies the tool corrector identifier to be used in the operation.Enhanced relimiting element management in Profile ContouringCapability to select a point as limit element in IN and OUT positions.Enhanced usability of machining patternsUsability enhancements facilitate access to the geometric and technological data of a machiningpattern and the capability to share this data between operations.Support of 3D wireframe operators in machining patternsPossibility to reference in a machining pattern one or more 3D Wireframe Features (that is,Projection, Symmetry, Rotation and Translation operators) containing at least one point.Local inversion of machining pattern in axial machining operationsNew option allows tool path computation to start at the last pattern point and end at the firstpattern point. This can be used to save machining time when managing two operations that sharethe same machining pattern on a large part. It is also useful for machining symmetrical parts(please refer to Opposite hand machining).Extended support of tool types in machining operationsTap now available in Thread without Tap Head operationT-Slotter now available in Circular Milling operation.Please refer to thePrismatic Machining User's Guidefor more information.Enhancements brought to 3-axis machining operationsSlope areaBetter visualization of the results. Enable to hide/show Horizontal or Intermediate or Vertical areas.MacrosNew user interface to define approach/retract motions in surface machining operations. It includes abuilder if the user needs to create a dedicated macro.RoughingCutting mode is respected for helical strategy.Please refer to the3-Axis Surface Machining User's Guidefor more information.Enhancements brought to multi-axis machining operationsIsoparametric Machining: Support of non-adjacent facesEnlarges the type of supported part geometry in both 3-axis and 5-axis Isoparametric Machining byAdvanced MachiningVersion 5 Release 12Page 4enabling the selection of several discontinuous groups of faces.5-Axis Contour Driven: To/From strategy in Parallel Contour modeAllows you to machine paths TO the reference contour from the far limit defined by the Maximumwidth to machine parameter .Previously, paths could be be machined FROM the reference contour up to the far limit defined bythe Maximum width to machine parameter.Please refer to theMulti-Axis Surface Machining User's Guidefor more information.Enhancements brought to the NC Manufacturing InfrastructureThis product benefits from enhancements to the infrastructure's general functions (Copy/Tracut, OppositeHand Machining, Auto Complete, Machining Processes, Associativity, Manufacturing View, and so on).Please refer to theNC Manufacturing Infrastructure User's Guidefor more information.Advanced MachiningVersion 5 Release 12Page 5Getting StartedBefore getting into the detailed instructions for using Advanced Machining, this tutorial is intended to giveyou a feel of what you can accomplish with the product.It provides the following step-by-step scenario that shows you how to use some of the key functionalities.Enter the Workbench and Setup the Part OperationCreate a Roughing OperationCreate an Isoparametric Machining OperationCreate a Multi-Axis Flank Contouring OperationGenerate NC Code [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
