Planit Edgecam




 Planit Edgecam





 Edgecam  includes a comprehensive library of proven post-processors and knowledge-based cutting schemes as standard.

 
  As well as the new wire EDM function, a number of enhancements gives added value for all Edgecam users:

The industry-leading Waveform Roughing cycle now has the ability to specify a pre-drilled hole as the approach type, ensuring a smoother transition into the material, reducing the cycle time even further.


 
In Feature Finder, improved ordering based on a “nearest next” algorithm ensures that features are presented in optimum order for machining. Feature Finder can now also identify U and V shaped groves for subsequent machining.

In Turning, the new Rough Profiling cycle removes material in a series of cuts parallel to the input profile, and is typically used for roughing free form profiles from castings and forgings. It is also useful for cutting materials where it is beneficial to minimise re-entrant cutting as it keeps the tool in contact with the material for longer. The cycle includes intelligent stock entry and exit, as well as being stock-aware to eliminate air cuts and reduce cycle time, along with supporting controller tool offsets and including options to specify a range of different offsets.

Further enhancements have been made to the Edgecam Simulator, enabling the simulation process to be rewound to a previous position in the machining sequence.

 
 Edgecam is a certified partner for Autodesk Inventor, and 2013 R1 contains a direct interface with Autodesk Vault 2013, allowing users to manage their Edgecam files in it. Work in progress can be tracked, and users can maintain version control over their individual jobs.
When Edgecam files containing an Inventor model are checked out of the Vault and loaded into Edgecam, any recent changes to the Inventor model are recognised, flagging up the opportunity to update it in the Edgecam part.

NX Nastran



   NX NASTRAN


   NX Nastran solves structural analysis problems for linear and nonlinear analysis, dynamic response, rotor dynamics, aeroelasticity and optimization. The NX Nastran 8.5 release further increases the types of solutions you can perform, along with a number of computational performance and engineering workflow improvements as highlighted by the examples below:

Discipline and Physical Domain Extension

- Speed-dependent bearing properties for rotor dynamics allow you to more realistically simulate bearings in rotating systems, such as aircraft engines. Properties of the bearing are speed-dependent and support the inherent cross-directional coupling stiffness and viscous damping.
- Greater flexibility to model multi-rotor systems allows you to describe speeds of all rotors independently. This means you can model multiple rotors to have more complex rotor speed functions that are not simply fixed ratios between each other.
- Frequency-dependent acoustic absorbers characterize absorbing material as fluid with equivalent properties. This results in a less computationally intensive solution than direct modeling.

SpaceClaim



SpaceClaim 2012 introduces significant new capabilities in model preparation for simulation, manufacturing, data-geometry reuse. These new capabilities build on SpaceClaim’s accessibility, ease-of-use, and low total-cost-of-ownership, enabling even more engineers, designers, and analysts to complete their projects with SpaceClaim’s innovative 3D direct modeling technology.



SpaceClaim adds value to existing CAD infrastructure by enabling all engineers to leverage existing data and contribute to product definition in 3D. SpaceClaim can seamlessly open and edit 2D and 3D data from almost any CAD system and manipulate lightweight geometry from digital mockup formats such as JT. SpaceClaim can edit foreign data just as easily as if it were created in SpaceClaim itself. SpaceClaim also produces precise, accurate 3D data and 2D drawings to specify detailed design in CAD, creating the most effective handoff to CAD possible. By allowing all engineers to communicate in 3D and 2D, teams can eliminate much of the waste and rework associated with monolithic CAD processes.

Benefits
- Works with your in-house CAD and PLM tools
- Eliminate waste caused by back and forth with CAD
- Mix and match geometry from multiple sources to get the answers you need
- Easy-to-use, easy-to-learn, low total cost of ownership (TCO)





Features
- Read 2D and 3D CAD data, including native formats such as JT, STEP, and 3DPDF
- Write data in formats suitable to CAD, such as JT, CATIA v5, and STEP
- Edit geometry regardless of origin to suggest edits to the CAD team
- Repair flawed or poorly-constructed models with push-button simple tools
- Lightweight open for large assemblies
- De-feature models to create Customer View Models (CVM), which are simplified representations that protect your Intellectual property (IP)
- Perform real-time design reviews with customers and colleagues
- Create 3D markup and drawings to communicate design changes
