SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE
all 3D cutting tools for a job.
Users can simulate grinder dressing, in which
a secondary tool is applied to a grinding wheel to
freshen the grinding surface or change the grind-
ing wheel cutting shape. Vericut simulates the
dynamic compensation needed while the dresser
is used, even while the grinder is engaged with
the part.
The Force module maximizes chip thickness,
creating constant cut ting forces resulting in
significant machining time savings. Real-time
graphs and charts reveal cutting conditions and
forces as cutting tools encounter them. The data
helps NC programme rs ide ntif y unde sirable
cutting conditions.
