Seminar for Improving Cutting Processes and Reducing Costs
This is a notice for a technical seminar where engineers involved in busy daily operations of cutting processing can acquire skills to effectively utilize cutting CAE in practice.
We will introduce how simulation can be utilized to solve challenges in cutting processes, along with demonstrations and case studies. *You will hear plenty of successful examples!
This year's JIMTOF will be held online, and CTC has decided to participate in order to share information about the cutting simulation software we handle (AdvantEdge FEM, Production Module). In this seminar, we will introduce how cutting simulation can help solve customer challenges through demonstrations and case studies. Additionally, we will be collecting questions from everyone and will address them during the seminar, so please feel free to ask any questions you may have or anything that piqued your interest during the presentation. Agenda: 1. AdvantEdge FEM demonstration and case studies Confirmation of changes in cutting resistance and stress by altering the rake angle in 2D analysis. 2. Production Module demonstration and case studies Optimization of feed rates through smoothing of cutting loads on tool paths in conjunction with NX CAM. 3. Information on upcoming events. 4. Summary and Q&A session throughout the seminar.
![[Processing Troubles] Tool breakage, tap, and counterbore leakage.](https://image.mono.ipros.com/public/product/image/7dc/2000800480/IPROS95079816485598794538.png?w=280&h=280)
Considering the delivery time, cost, and quality, there is a significant loss... NCVIEW can prevent drilling troubles!
Even when proceeding carefully with drilling and tapping operations, processing troubles often occur where the tool breaks into the workpiece. When a tool breaks, it becomes necessary to either remake the workpiece, ask a skilled worker to remove it, or melt it away with discharge machining, which results in significant losses in terms of delivery time, cost, and quality. To shorten working hours and ensure quality, 'NCVIEW' is useful as it automatically verifies and reports on hole processing thoroughly. [Causes of Troubles] <Drilling and Tapping> ■ Processing troubles often occur where the tool breaks into the workpiece. ■ It is necessary to remake the workpiece, ask a skilled worker to remove it, or melt it away with discharge machining. → This results in significant losses considering delivery time, cost, and quality. <Processing with Many Holes> ■ It becomes unclear which holes have been checked, leading to overlooked holes. ■ Visual confirmation alone always raises concerns. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
![[Case Study] Jig: Imao Corporation](https://image.mono.ipros.com/public/product/image/255/2000614904/IPROS23965420585134211145.png?w=280&h=280)
Bulk data export is possible! A system that can be safely used by users who are proficient in macros.
At IMAO Corporation's Manufacturing Department, we use suitable software at each stage of work, from the design phase of jigs to just before actual processing. The processing simulation part of our in-house system "IMAO M/C SOLUTION," which achieves in-machine debugging-less operation, is handled by "Vericut," and the system itself is operated at the Mino factory for actual jig-based manufacturing. The ability to perform debugging work on a computer up to the point where there are no issues with processing on the machine, rather than debugging work within the machine itself, is a significant advantage. It provides a sense of security to the entire site. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

Introducing case studies of suitable tools that meet expectations for "quality, cost, and delivery"!
At the Takasago Manufacturing Plant of the Motor Business Headquarters, we are currently utilizing 10 licenses of "Vericut." Overall, the company has introduced nearly 40 licenses, and it is actively used in many business divisions. With the ability to perform interference checks on the PC screen in advance, the possibility of machine stoppages or tool damage is brought close to zero. The introduction of this product has provided peace of mind and reduced mental stress not only for NC programmers but also for machine operators and tool management personnel. 【Features】 ■ Interference checks are conducted during the 3D model creation stage for jig requests, preventing issues before they occur and significantly reducing rework and modification time. ■ This leads to dramatic time savings, eliminating the costs associated with necessary modifications. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
Simulation software that dramatically improves processing efficiency.
The "Cutting Catcher" is a simulation software that theoretically derives optimal end mill cutting conditions, reduces tool wear, and dramatically improves processing efficiency. By using the Cutting Catcher as a tool, it enables both offensive and defensive applications, and can be utilized for optimizing end mill tool specifications and tool holder specifications. 【Features】 ■ Optimization simulation of processing conditions using a unique analysis method ■ Excellent cost-effectiveness ■ Easy to implement and operate *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Enhanced cutting simulation supports a wide range of machining! Assisting in solving various challenges related to cutting!
We will explain the features and operations of the new versions of AdvantEdge FEM and the Production Module. In AdvantEdge FEM, it is now possible to define the movements of both the tool and the workpiece separately. This allows for the modeling of a wide range of phenomena, not only machining processes such as skiving and spinning tools but also processes like roll forming and impact analysis on metal sheets. In the Production Module, the shape of the workpiece during machining can now be output as a voxel mesh, which can be used for deformation analysis along with cutting force mapping files. 【Announcement of the Cutting CAE Conference】 The annual Cutting CAE Conference, where users utilizing cutting CAE present case studies, is scheduled to be held online on January 20, 2021. Along with the Cutting CAE Conference, we encourage you to consider participating in the webinar at this time. We sincerely look forward to your participation.
Introduction of the deformation analysis results of the workpiece using cutting forces calculated by cutting simulation.
This is a case where the tool deflection was evaluated from the cutting force assessed in the cutting simulation of the "Production Module." By applying the analysis results from AdvantEdge to the geometric simulation on the CAD/CAM model, the cutting force during machining was calculated. The cutting force, which is the analysis result, can also be utilized for strain deformation analysis during machining. Additionally, in a case where mesh generation was performed on the shape of the workpiece during machining, and strain deformation analysis due to cutting force was conducted, it was found that the strain deformation on the workpiece side is not determined solely by the cutting force, but that the contribution of the rigidity on the workpiece side is also significant. 【Tool Path Analysis】 ■ Operation equivalent to CAM using GUI ■ Supports importing chatter stability limit curve diagrams ■ Navigator function ・Tool position ・Target NC line *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
