Companies engaged in CNC machining around the world have chosen Vericut for over 35 years, making their machining operations more efficient.

Would you like to solve the problems of CNC machining? Non-functioning machines, damaged tools, expensive collision issues, discarded parts, prolonged test runs, wasted materials... These problems take away valuable time and costs. Vericut ensures machining accuracy by simulating the entire CNC machining process. It derives the "correct" result in a single machining operation.

CNC manufacturers around the world have chosen Vericut for over 35 years, making their machining processes more efficient.

By using the CNC simulation software Vericut, you can simulate machining parts on your PC before actually processing them with a machine. This helps prevent errors, mistakes, and human errors that could lead to damage to machines, parts (workpieces), jigs, and tools, as well as accidents with machine tools. Additionally, not only does it prevent errors and mistakes, but by using the NC program optimization module (feed rate optimization), you can shorten the machining cycle time and improve machining efficiency. Furthermore, Vericut offers many convenient features, such as precise part measurement using the cutting model after simulation and support for creating various reports like inspection sheets and machining instructions. Vericut has a modular licensing management system, providing flexibility for implementation. You can purchase the necessary functions (modules) in the required quantities. Even after implementing Vericut, you can easily add modules by purchasing the necessary modules and simply adding the license file.

Vericut Force is a physics-based NC program optimization software solution that analyzes and optimizes cutting conditions.

Optimization of Force significantly reduces machining time. Vericut Force creates effective NC programs for the given materials, cutting tools, and machining conditions. As a result, it saves a considerable amount of time and improves the lifespan of cutting tools and machines. With the optimization of Force, machining time is greatly reduced, and tool life is significantly extended. By analyzing with Vericut Force, programmers can quickly and easily visualize what happens in the NC program for each cut when the tool contacts the material. Using Vericut Force, underutilized cutting conditions, overloads, cutting removal rates, output, torque, and tool deflection can be clearly observed. With one click, a review of the NC program and visual analysis in the graphic review window is provided. This analysis offers a view of the machining before running the NC program on the actual machine. Vericut Force provides users with proactive analysis of NC programs.

• Milling machine

The optimized NC program is efficient. It significantly improves processing efficiency, reduces material waste, and accelerates the time to market for parts.

**Main Benefits of Vericut Optimizer** Vericut Optimizer is an NC program optimization solution that can operate independently without using Vericut. Even if you are satisfied with your current CAM verification software and have no intention of purchasing Vericut, Vericut Optimizer is the optimal choice.

• simulator

Maximizing the efficiency of the entire manufacturing site is key to optimizing CNC machining for the future.

The main benefits of the Vericut Icam post are that Icam's CNC post-processor enables smooth integration with existing CAD systems and CNC machines, maximizing the efficiency and accuracy of the manufacturing process. This reduces cumbersome tasks and enhances productivity.

• simulator

Simulation of both additive manufacturing and conventional subtractive machining (cutting).

With Vericut's additive module, you can simulate hybrid composite processing. The Vericut additive module accurately simulates additive manufacturing (layered construction) and traditional subtractive processing (machining) in hybrid composite processing.

• simulator

Prevent accidents with actual machines through simulation using Vericut's "virtual machine"! Numerous case studies included!

This document introduces cases where work efficiency has been improved by implementing "Vericut." By using the NC simulation software "Vericut," it is possible to simulate the cutting of parts on a PC before actual processing, thereby eliminating mistakes that could lead to damage of machine parts, jigs, tools, or accidents with machine tools. If you are seriously considering preventing troubles at the processing site, please consider implementing "Vericut." [Featured Cases (Excerpt)] - Railway Vehicle Manufacturing: Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. - Tools: Tungaloy Corporation - Machine Tools: Makino Milling Machine Co., Ltd. - Cast and Forged Steel Products: Kobe Steel, Ltd. - Prototype Processing: HILLTOP Corporation *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We have added a new **"Glossary"** to the Hyper CLT sheet website. In the civil engineering and construction industries, there are many specialized terms such as "CLT," "NETIS," "temporary roads," and "wooden lightweight sheets." Therefore, we have introduced related terms in an easy-to-understand manner so that those who are encountering Hyper CLT sheets for the first time can understand the products and technologies. Hyper CLT sheets are wooden lightweight sheets for civil engineering that utilize wood CLT and are registered under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS technology as **"TH-250021-A."** We hope that by not only conveying the features of the product but also sharing the underlying technologies and terminology, users will feel a closer connection to Hyper CLT sheets. We will continue to enhance our website and provide clear information related to wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily understandable at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

On September 15, 2026, we issued a press release regarding the wooden lightweight sheet "Hyper CLT Sheet." The Hyper CLT Sheet is a civil engineering sheet that utilizes CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) stacked in an orthogonal direction. It can be used in various locations such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. The 5×10 version weighs approximately 230 kg, making it relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate. Additionally, it offers environmental benefits such as reducing glare and metallic sounds typical of wood, as well as CO2 fixation. Furthermore, it can be proposed for the use of new technologies in public works as a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism "TH-250021-A."** Through this press release, we aim to expand the new wooden lightweight sheet that combines wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT to more construction sites.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
