hyperMILL[$reg] V9 with feature technology and automatic collision avoidance
The manufacturing industry needs to be able to respond quickly to the demands of customers, while keeping costs as low as possible. hyperMILL[$reg] V9 is the perfect tool for achieving this balance. The latest version of this software integrates simplified programming processes and a high level of process reliability. The fully developed feature technology and numerous new automated functions guarantee more efficient and time-saving operation.
hyperMILL[$reg] V9 from OPEN MIND Technologies AG comes with a wide range of new functions that reduce programming requirements and optimise machining both on a large and a small scale. These functions include improved stock roughing with automatic feedrate reduction for full cutting and path optimisation in axis-parallel machining, stock management, the easy definition of milling and stop surfaces, and machine and removal simulation. By far the most impressive function for optimising work processes is the greatly improved feature technology.
Comprehensive feature definition guarantees flexibility
hyperMILL[$reg] boasts a fully developed feature technology. Using this technology, geometry information from surface and solid models can be recognised and processed. Feature recognition takes place on the whole model and recognises holes as well as other geometries including pockets and plane levels. hyperMILL[$reg] stores the features in a feature list. Complex machining sequences, in the form of technology macros, can then be assigned to these features. This provides a range of intelligent and automated functions to support programmers. Another important feature is bidirectionality between the CAD model and the feature list. Thus, features can be identified via the feature list or in the CAD model. Sorting and filter functions including type, orientation, colour, layer or parameters such as the drilling depth and the diameter make it possible to precisely search for the features to be processed. A particular highlight is the way in which the current status of the model, including visible elements, orientation and zoom, can be saved and activated for any feature and at any time. Locating smaller geometries, in particular, is now much easier. All in all, feature technology represents the ideal way to efficiently process existing machining and geometry information and thus clearly reduce the amount of programming required in the CAM system.
New stock tracking with various tool orientations
An unprecedented amount of control of the machining status is guaranteed thanks to the enhanced stock tracking function. This allows the user to calculate, as required, the current machining status for every single job step, for any number of selected job steps or for the entire job. The user can also define various tool positions for individual jobs. Management of stock takes place in a separate job list window. This provides a clear display of the stock that has already been calculated. The calculated stock is suitable for visual feedback or as a basis for further machining such as the roughing of any stock.
Efficient machining using intelligent strategies
The range of functions for the roughing of any stock has also been greatly expanded. This cycle includes automatic plane level recognition. This functionality ensures uniform allowances for subsequent finishing or enables surfaces to be completely machined at the roughing stage. Used in conjunction with stock tracking, this cycle makes the roughing of parts with thin-walled ribs (typical of aerospace parts) much more efficient. The bottom can be processed in one machining cycle, while material remains on the walls for the subsequent finishing process.
Drilling now includes a retract plane checking process. In practice, this means that every movement can now be checked for collision with the model. Thus the clearance planes within drilling templates can be placed very close to the part being machined. This keeps the number of retracts to a minimum. As movements between individual machining planes and infeed movements between drill points are both checked for collision with the model, this cycle includes a particularly reliable collision check. If a collision is detected, the cycle automatically repositions to a collision-free plane.
Faster collision control and avoidance
Collision control and avoidance is especially important for 5-axis machining; however, it is also important for many 3D applications as well. Collision control in hyperMILL[$reg] V9 is now much more powerful for two reasons. The first is that tool heads and brackets can now be freely defined. The generated rotational solid is included in the collision control and avoidance. Moreover, the rotational solid is managed in the tool database and is always available once defined. The other reason is that the computation time is considerably reduced for the collision check process despite utilising more detailed data on tools and holders. All in all, performance is increased considerably. |
