Hurco has introduced a groundbreaking feature for its CNC machines: the Solid Model Import. By allowing users to import customer 3D solid models (.stp files) directly into the control system, this innovation significantly enhances productivity and precision in 5-sided programming.
The Solid Model Import feature simplifies the complex programming process by automatically creating transform planes. These planes form the basis of Hurco’s approach to making 5-sided programming efficient and user-friendly. Operators can select specific features to be machined, such as identifying the floor and top of a pocket. The software then calculates the pocket depth directly from the model without the need for manual data entry.
This approach not only saves time but also improves the accuracy of the machining process. By selecting the desired features and confirming tool specifications, operators can expedite the production process with ease, increasing efficiency.
Hurco’s latest advancement underscores its commitment to innovation and supporting machinists with cutting-edge solutions. With a focus on enhancing conversational programming, the Solid Model Import empowers users to achieve higher precision in their projects.
Hurco continues to be a leading force in the CNC industry, known for its dedication to improving manufacturing processes with state-of-the-art technology. For more insights and information on Hurco’s products and services, visit their UK website.
