FROM THE CAD MODEL TO THE CUTTING PROGRAM - QUICKLY, SAFELY AND EFFICIENT. With the new programming station for wire EDM machines, you now have another powerful technology package available within Tebis software that is specially tailored for the manufacturing requirements in die and mold manufacturing. Because the application is integrated into Tebis, both 2-Axis and 4-Axis wire EDM programs can be calculated and exported rlircciy ■.-:!I'.oul c-xlrj Interface runs.

Seing able to access at any time a compLete CAD system with comfortable design and analysis options has proven to be a considerable advantage throughout the entire programming process. Another highlight: The synchronization between the upper and lower contour is done automatically. Cutting paths can be derived directly from curves, surfaces and solids. Even complex 3D contours will he generated without errors ossec o ", the designed geometry.

From contour definition to NC export The software's Logical setup guides you safely and securely, and in a structured manner, through the individual steps of your process 3. Define bore holes 4. Assign contour properties 5. Define machining strategy 6. Start visualization and NC browser Using templates for high-level process safety The software's performance range lets you effectively combine automated standard processes with job-related interaction options. The system supports your assignment of machining strategies with standardized and tested-and-true parameter sets. It also allows for targeted...

3 3 Targeted selection of bore holes Bore holes can be quickly defined and adjusted to suit the component's structure. 5 Define job-based machining strategies Assignment of a job groups the contours and all the actions and properties into a machining strategy. You can use predefined parameter sets but also have a wide range of designing options to choose from. Complex cutting sequences can be quickly and easily adjusted to suit the requirements of the most varied of situations. For example, if you want to do the main cuts first and the skim cuts later, as is done in day/night shifts, you can...

4 Supported by a comfortable job plan Tebis software offers a wide range of options for optimizing and simplifying programming for your erosion jobs. As the central control element, the job plan provides a structured overview of all parameters and functions used at all times. Each machining step is visualized and documented, and each newly defined contour or property is displayed with an appropriate symbol. Changes can be executed quickly and easily. As in Windows Explorer, command control is done via the context menu of a selected element. Use the drag & drop function to move and copy entries....

5 Integrated CAD/CAM system The integration of Tebis software aids design and manufacturing processes. Because you can execute all the steps in the process chain within a single system, you can avoid time-consuming geometric adjustments after data imports and the generation of additional data. And having access at any time to a complete CAD system with comfortable design and analysis options has proven to be a considerable advantage throughout the entire programming process. Mold and die manufacturers already using Tebis to run their milling and who also count on Tebis when designing and manufacturing...

6 Quickly achieving your goals with the interactive user interface Our process-oriented job plan's functionality and clarity have proven to be important advantages throughout the programming process. You also benefit from the interactive user interface when troubleshooting programming-related inconsistencies as well, as you no longer have to spend a lot of time searching for error sources. For example, when a selected bore hole is not perpendicular to a contour or not all the necessary contour properties were defined in the job assignment, the system will let you execute fast and targeted fixes....

7 Comprehensive statistics Problem-free data transfers Our comprehensive and clear statistic functions keep you in complete control at all times. You can query all the important information for contour elements and their properties in the job plan. That also includes geometric information on the element types, the number of segments of a contour and the lengths, radii or angles, as well as listings of all the interpolation, approximation, rounding or radius restoration results. If gaps were closed when a contour was created, you can have the system display the original gaps and their statistics....
