CADCAM and nesting for sheet metal and composite cutting
Whether you are a job shop producing small runs or a multi-national company looking for complete automation, JETCAM Expert CADCAM delivers a comprehensive programming system for all punching, cutting, profiling, routing and composite cutting machine tools - including combination machines and machines with loading/unloading equipment and/or right angle shearing. Automation features such as Remote Control Processing (RCP) allow JETCAM Expert to be tightly integrated into existing data systems such as MRP, and provide feedback for Industry 4.0 strategies.
New in v20 - JET-Cut and JET-Optimizer
JET-Cut and JET-Optimizer are major steps forward in the automation of laser machines. JET-Cut allows 'fly cutting', also known as grid cutting, to be applied to arrays of holes. Unlike other systems this happens fully automatically. In tests, cut times for complex components are regularly reduced by 25-50%.
JET-Optimizer highly optimizes the sequence of cutting internal holes to minimize machine movements while avoiding travel over already cut holes.
New in v20 - Single hit to line of hits
Ideal for jobs that have hundreds or thousands of single hits, this new feature optimizes the path of any single hits creating during automatic tool placements and then converts single hits with regular spacing into lines of holes, drastically improving the nesting process.
New in v20 - Multi-tool holder logic
Updates to automatic tool assignment logic, ensuring that only used multitool holders are loaded into the turret loading screen, output into generic NC code and output into reports or report data.
New in v20 - High Performance Nesting 7 (option)
HPN7 includes further enhancements to nesting efficiency, often paying for itself in a matter of weeks in material savings alone. New compaction routines and enhancements to multiprocessor support get the job done quicker and more efficiently. (Note: additional upgrade fee applies).
...and more.
Other features include improvements to the user interface, enhancements to Right Angle Shear support, DXF filtering tweaks to significantly improve processing of complex parts, new and enhanced RCP (remote control processing) commands, which is useful when implementing Industry 4.0 strategies, support for new machines and dozens of enhancements to existing postprocessors.
These are just some of the hundreds of new features in v20, which is available free of charge to all customers with a current maintenance contract.
Interactive or automatic, and scalable for all business types
JETCAM Expert is available in four core versions, and also has a number of additional modules available, depending on your needs. Expert Lite provides a low cost entry system. Expert 1 builds on this, with automation such as S.C.A.P. Expert Premium supports unlimited postprocessors, complex machines and modules such as Parametric Programming and High Performance Nesting. Expert Premium Connected Automation (CA) takes this one step further by offering tight integration to existing systems such as MRP that can then remotely control the full nesting process.
