Software shortens machining cycle times

- Automation and Software
Makino has introduced SGI.5, the latest version of its Super Geometric Intelligence software for high-feed-rate, tight-tolerance machining of complex, 3-D contoured shapes.
Depending upon the specific geometry of the application, the software can provide 20 to 60 per cent faster cycle times while maintaining accuracy and surface finishes, the company reports.
High speeds, high feeds, and tight accuracies are possible when executing NC programs with microblocks for which traverse movement value is 1 mm or less. This is characteristic of the complex 3-D free, curved surface shapes found in die/mould, medical, and aerospace applications.
