CGTech’s VERICUT software simulates, verifies, optimizes metalworking processes

CGTech offers VERICUT® version 8.1 of its CNC machine simulation, verification, and optimization software that simulates all types of CNC machining, additive, and hybrid manufacturing processes. The software operates independently, but also can be integrated with CAM systems.
By optimizing toolpath feed rates, the VERICUT Force™ module reduces machining time, increases tool life, and produces a higher-quality finished product, the company states.
Graphs and charts are enhanced to display in real time, revealing cutting conditions and forces as they are encountered by cutting tools. This helps NC programmers “see” machining in a more analytical way and immediately identifies undesirable cutting conditions. Spikes in the graphs show when forces, chip loads, tool deflection, and material removal rates exceed a tool’s recommended performance parameters. With one click on the chart, the responsible NC program record is identified and the graphics area displays the corresponding cut, helping NC programmers to better understand cutting processes.
Several new modules have been added, including Additive, Grinder-Dressing, and a Teamcenter Interface.
