What is Predator Virtual CNC?

Predator Virtual CNC software enables users to simulate and validate the functions of CNC machines directly from their computers. By performing offline machining simulations, you can significantly reduce expenses, decrease waste from scrapped parts, prevent tool damage, and avoid machine malfunctions, all while enhancing safety and efficiency. The software accommodates a variety of machine setups, including standard vertical and horizontal configurations, as well as more intricate 2-5 axis machines. With its adaptable reverse post processors, users can create custom machine tool setups that are compatible with both VMCs and HMCs. It supports a range of operations, including milling, turning, and drilling cycles, in addition to advanced functionalities like subroutines, macros, variables, logic codes, and trigonometric codes. Designed for optimal performance in 3-axis surface milling, Predator Virtual CNC can manage extensive files without performance degradation. It achieves impressive processing speeds, reaching up to 3,000 blocks per minute while ensuring precision. Furthermore, the Predator Virtual CNC 5 Axis variant also includes support for 3+2 configurations, thereby enhancing its versatility for complex machining tasks. This capability underscores the software's commitment to providing comprehensive solutions for modern CNC operations.

What is HSMWorks?

Effortlessly generate and execute CAM toolpaths without needing to toggle between various software platforms. Enhance your workflow and reduce the likelihood of errors with seamless integration of 2.5- to 5-axis milling, turning, and mill-turn functions directly within your CAD system. With a Fusion 360 subscription, HSMWorks becomes accessible, allowing you to utilize a user-friendly interface that works harmoniously with powerful design tools, assuring full compatibility with SOLIDWORKS. Boost your efficiency using a wide range of 2.5 and 3-axis milling techniques that promote effective operations. Additionally, simplify the machine setup process and achieve more precise tolerances through straightforward multi-axis programming. Take advantage of the ability to visualize the motion of your machine tools through comprehensive simulations that include the spindle, fixtures, and all critical machine components. You can easily manage turning operations, ranging from simple 2-axis tasks to intricate mill-turn processes, all while keeping a cohesive workflow. Furthermore, enjoy advanced design features by linking your SOLIDWORKS files to Fusion 360, a unique advantage provided with your subscription. This seamless integration not only streamlines your design efforts but also enhances teamwork and collaboration among various departments. Ultimately, this cohesive approach fosters an environment where innovation can flourish.
