Irvine, California and Hove, England – CGTech will showcase its expanded range of software applications for the aerospace industry on stand Hall 2B, Stand F172, Booth 2, at the Paris Air Show, Le Bourget, Paris on June 15-19, 2015.
CGTech’s VERICUT is widely used in aerospace and defense to improve the efficiency of all types of CNC machine tools. VERICUT is CNC machine simulation, verification, and optimization software that enables users to eliminate the process of manually proving-out NC programs. VERICUT simulates all types of CNC machining, including multi axis milling, drilling and trimming of composite parts, water jet cutting, robotic machining and mill/turn centers. VERICUT runs standalone, but can also be integrated with leading CAM systems used in aerospace including Dassault Systemes CATIA, Siemens PLM NX, Delcam PowerMill, and Open Mind HyperMill.
Aerospace applications for CNC machine tool suppliers including DMG MORI, Mazak, Starrag, GROB, CMS, and Hermle will be featured.
Throughout the show, CGTech will be demonstrating VERICUT composite applications: VERICUT Composite Programming (VCP) and VERICUT Composite Simulation (VCS).
CGTech will feature projects that highlight the use of off-line NC programming and simulation software for automated fiber placement (AFP) machines and automated tape laying (ATL) machines including robot cells. VERICUT composites applications are machine independent and machines from composites machinery suppliers, including Electroimpact and mTorres, will be featured.
VERICUT Drilling and Fastening (VDAF) is software for simulating and programming auto-drilling and fastening machines. These machines are used to assemble large aero-structures and it is essential to avoid programming errors and collisions at such a late stage in the aircraft manufacturing process. VERICUT allows the user to program drilling and fastener assembly operations in a virtual machine tool environment and provides simulation to check for a variety of potentially disastrous error conditions. VERICUT software VDAF interfaces to leading CAD/CAM/PLM systems such as Dassault Systemes CATIA and Siemens NX, and is independent of the assembly machine manufacturer.
