CIMCO Machine Simulation is a software solution designed to enhance shop safety and efficiency by simulating and testing NC programs on a PC. This allows users to identify potential hazards and errors before running them on physical machines, reducing setup time and improving overall productivity.

Key Features

• Full Control of Simulation: Analyze simulations from any angle using zoom, pan, and rotate functions. Adjustable speed and jump options are available.
• Stock Material Removal: Simulate stock removal with high and low tolerance options, including importing stock as STL files.
• Inspection: Side-by-side display of NC code, simulation, and simulation reports. Automatic detection of collisions and errors.
• Simulation Report: Detailed reports of errors found during simulation, allowing direct editing and verification.
• Machine Configurations: Download pre-configured machines or create custom configurations using the Machine Configuration Editor.
• CAM Integrations: Seamless data transfer from CAM systems like Mastercam and SolidCAM.

Benefits

• Enhanced Safety: Protect employees and machines by identifying hazards before physical operations.
• Accelerated Startup: Reduce setup times by simulating NC programs, minimizing scrap and calibration needs.
• Efficient Iterations: Quickly test modifications and new ideas to optimize NC programs.
• Faster Machine Switching: Seamlessly switch between machine configurations to adapt to production needs.
• Training: Train employees on NC editing and machine operation using the simulation environment.
