VISI 2017 R2 - Springback prediction, Safety zone analysis, Model compensation for sheet medal dies Info Icon
This new feature allows to compute Springback prediction based on reference material and blank calculation. This will provide major benefits to the die market by reducing the time of the design to manufacturing process and by reducing cost of a typical trial and error approach

VISI 2017 R2 - 2D Pocketing

VISI 2017 R2 - 2D Pocketing

The new 2.5 Axis Pocketing strategy provides toolpath quality improvements, and the ability to machine from a stock model. When the stock model is defined, the Pocketing strategy is able to identify the areas where it is necessary to remove the material and adapt the toolpath to produce passes only where necessary.

 
VISI 2017 R2 - 2D Waveform

VISI 2017 R2 - 2D Waveform

New for 2.5-Axis machining, the Waveform Strategy (previously available in 3D roughing) maintains constant tool cutting load, constant cutting feed rate, and a smooth toolpath which avoids sharp changes in direction.

 
VISI 2017 R2 - Electrode Machining process

VISI 2017 R2 - Electrode Machining process

The Electrode machining module automates the electrode design-to-manufacturing process. It benefits from all the relevant electrode data added by the operator during the electrode creation phase, while also removing the potential risk of possible input error.

 
VISI 2017 R2 - Updated Dynamic Incremental Stock

VISI 2017 R2 - Updated Dynamic Incremental Stock

The enhancements achieved on the Roughing and Remachining strategy provides a more reliable and higher quality toolpath. The residual material algorithm has been enhanced to provide a better quality residual area output. The result is an improved toolpath quality and an optimised toolpath in reference to the residual area computation.

VISI 2017 R2 - Shank Clearance

VISI 2017 R2 adds new functionality to support clearance on the tool and shank

 
VISI 2017 R2 - Mesh reverse engineering

VISI 2017 R2 - Mesh reverse engineering

VISI 2017 R2 is the first step to a new reverse engineering tool in collaboration with Hexagon technology. A mesh can be constructed and refined directly from a point cloud ready for surface construction.
