AI WireCut Expert is one of the most user-friendly & effective CAM systems available in the market for CNC WireCut NC programming. Most AI WireCut Expert users are able to generate the correct NC code for machining within 1 to 2 hours after the installation of the system. What users need to learn is simply 2 steps:
- The assignment of NC Setting to drawing objects to be wirecutted.
- To output the NC by selecting the “Output NC” button
Once you setup your own knowledge base, a NC program can be generated within a few clicks. For simplicity, the system eliminates command prompt procedures whenever possible.
AI WireCut Expert supports virtually any brand of wirecut machines in the market. The Post Processor Configuration feature allows you to redefine the Post Processor macro to suit any machine & virtually any requirements.
AI WireCut Expert provides the most comprehensive features to deal with almost any kind of machining requirements & applications. AI WireCut Expert is widely used in both Mould & Die industries, the applications of the AI WireCut Expert ranging from semi precision applications such as general Press Tool & Plastic Moulding fabrication to high precision machining such as manufacturing of precision parts for lead frame tooling & IC mould etc.
The features supported by the system includes Die Cutting, Punch Cutting, Insert Cutting, Manual & Auto Single Block Cutting, Open Path Cutting, 4-Axis Cutting, Advance Conic, Coreless Cutting, Auto Wire Threading Cutting Operations, Multiple Workpiece Cutting, Wirecut Costing etc. The software architecture of AI WireCut Expert is built based on a user-friendly, simple interface yet coupled with comprehensive features and maximum flexibility. You can easily create the most complicated NC program comprising all main processes - die, punch, insert, single block, open path and 4-Axis cutting etc. in a single NC operation.
AI WireCut Expert comes in a standalone version that is powered by Autodesk Technology and runs on top of the world's most popular CAD platform: AutoCAD (version 2004 above). You can generate the NC code directly from drawing entities such as lines & arcs, circles, polylines, round blocks etc. If there are duplicated and/or overlapping lines or arcs, zero length entities etc. in the drawing profile, the system will automatically remove the entities that are not required. To modify the profile after you have generated the NC code is extremely easy - what you need to do is simply modify the profile and re-generate the NC.
AI WireCut Expert is fully integrated with AI Tool Design.
