2.5D Machining

SprutCAM features several 2.5D machining
strategies for the machining of multi-level 2D
parts. Available strategies include calculations
for roughing and finishing tool paths. Machining
parts of any level of complexity is achieved using
strategies for machining: along a contour, island
machining, vertical walls, slots & pockets with
islands. SprutCAM has the ability to
automatically recognize horizontal surfaces as
well as holes. The system supports all types of
hole machining including tapping and thread
milling. The automatic recognition of rest
material and the full control of machining
accuracy is included.

4-AXIS ROTARY
MACHINING
Rotary machining within SprutCAM is a milling process that, when a linear movement is aligned with one of the standard axis X, Y, Z, it can be transposed into a rotational movement. This method of machining is ideally suited for the machining of; axles, crankshafts, camshafts, oilwell and gas industry tooling equipment, augers. Rotary machining reduces the complexity of manufacturing parts while increasing the quality by eliminating positioning errors between part setups. SprutCAM contains a wide range of strategies for the calculation of rotary machining programs.

MULTI - AXIS INDEXED MACHINING
When doing multi-axis machining, the
required rotation angle of the part can be applied
interactively by simply clicking on the required
part of the 3D model surface, which will
automatically orientate the tool / part. SprutCAM
automatically calculates the necessary rotation
angles and generates the NC program. The tool
path is calculated taking into account the
predefined machine kinematics (structure) for
index machining for 4-5 and more axes. Multi-axes
machining comprises 2.5, 3 and 4 axis milling
strategies. NC programs are calculated taking into
account any transformations of the working CS. To
carry out machining of the same part on a machine
with another kinematics scheme, it only requires
selection of the required machine and
recalculation of the existing operations.
Multi-axis machining significantly reduces the
number of required processes, improves the
quality of machining while labor involvement is
also reduced.

5-AXIS CONTINUOUS
MACHINING

SprutCAM has strategies for 5-axis
machining that allows the development of
control programs for all types of multi-axis
milling machines, including multi-task
machining centres. The NC program is created
taking into consideration the CNC machine
model which enables collision avoidance of
any type during machining. SprutCAM fully
supports toolpath calculation based on
rotating coordinate systems e.g. TCPM.
SprutCAM includes market leading strategies
for collision avoidance and full control of tool
orientation.

MACHINING ON
INDUSTRIAL ROBOTS
SprutCAM - work integrated environment that allows to develop NC programs for a variety of types of machining using industrial robots. The system comprises the following machining modules:

Milling;
Plasma arc cutting;
WaterJet cutting;
Laser cutting;
Knife cutting;
Welding (arc, laser);
Surface grinding;
Deburring edges of details;
Area cladding;
Thermal strengthening of the surface.

The calculation of the tool path along part features
is made while taking into account:

Robot kinematics;
Singularity area;
Coverage area;
The range of allowable angular rotation of the joints of the robot;
Collision control;
Control of additional axes of the robotic cell.

The Robot control program is generated taking into account the currently selected robot type. SprutCAM outputs the technological commands inherent to the selected robot type within the created control program

WIRE EDM
SprutCAM wire EDM operations enable the creation of 2 axis internal and external vertical contour machining. There are also 4-axis machining strategies with automatic, interactive and precise
synchronization working with either 2D (curves) or 3D models. A cutting parameter databases can be defined for each individual machine and the many possibilities for multiple profile machining
ensure excellent surface accuracy with minimum user input. Automatic, interactive and precise placement of 'bridges’ for connected features prevents parts dropping out of the material. Hole position for wire feed are transferred to the holes machining operation in order to create the NC program for hole drilling.

TURN MILL MACHINING
SprutCAM enables the creation of NC programs for all types of turn/mill machines. Machines can be programmed with any number and arrangement of turrets equipped with driven tools using the C, Y and B axes. CNC machine tool types that can include tooling systems with any tool position (turret / holder) and number are supported; hence, the NC program can include a combination of both lathe and milling abilities. All strategies for the lathe and 2.5-5 axes milling machining are available. Synchronization of turrets on. Multi-turret machines is also available.

MACHINING SIMULATION
SprutCAM includes a powerful machining simulation module, which allows the user to simulate the machining of the part using any machine already installed within SprutCAM; using the full machine kinematics and 3D model. The machining simulation enables the machining technology to be optimized for maximum efficiency, tooling and machine life etc. While simulating the machining process, SprutCAM automatically takes into account both the machine and auxiliary equipment travel limits. The standard SprutCAM installer includes a variety of machines for practically all types of metal-cutting machinery.
