VISI-Machining 2D with MFR

VISI-Machining 2D is the integrated solution for all VISI-Series applications for developing 2D machining toolpaths - profiles, pockets, slots, drills, etc.

   

VISI-Machining 3D

VISI-Machining 3D is integrated with all VISI-Series applications, and for machining cores, cavities, and die form stations, VISI-Machining nothing is better.  Using advanced machining technologies like "normal" step-over, rest machining, ISO machining, and rest milling, VISI-Machining 3D is easier to learn - faster to program - runs faster on the CNC - and generates higher quality finishes.

   

VisualMill Basic

There is no greater value for 2½D machining than VisualMill Basic.  Containing not only all standard 2D machining algorithms, it also includes some basic 3D algorithms as well as re-machining and thread milling.  But what's really amazing is the price - $995.  Check this system out first to be sure you don't spend more than you need -

   

VisualMill Advanced

They're called new paradigm systems.  You saw what SolidWorks, Solid EDGE, Mechanical Desktop, and Inventor did to the 3D CAD market - that's what VisualMill has done to CAM.  It's all there - Z-roughing, plunge-roughing, constant-Z, parallel plane, pencil machining, radial and spiral cuts, and machining between edge curves - and it's all for $3,995 - you'll be surprised with the function and the price.

   

Shop Floor Machining -
machining STRATEGIST

For core and cavity machining, nothing is more powerful than machining STRATEGIST as a shop floor solution when used behind customer supplied CAD systems such as CATIA, Unigraphics, Pro/Engineer, SolidWorks, Solid EDGE, and more.  What makes it special is the way it maintains a moving stock boundary after each cut for more efficient cutting and to support high speed machining.

   

CNC Utilities - editNC

This valuable tool for CNC operators lets them read and edit G-code files, perform all manner of toolpath manipulations (such as renumbering, translation, rotation, and reformating), backplot toolpaths into wireframe graphics, and provide trickle-feeding of CNC controllers for as many serial ports as on the PC.
