Software solutions to program EDM machine.

       

       It makes possible a inclined cut with a constant or variable angle, sharp corner and constant or variable radius. It enables to define “drop, arc or straight line” types of entries automatically and program the installation and automatic wire cut, as well as the wire stop or optional stop. It permits the automatic creation of elliptical profiles, inclined holes, spirals, curve T sine(t) for cams, n side polygons, etc.

 

       

       The capacity of using parameters in any project and the utilization of repeat cycles and conditionals permit the rapid creation of curves by points, from equations and/or known points. This is a very useful resource to solve problems relative to the cam construction and other complex geometries.
    It performs the emptying of cavities, using concentric passes. This is a very useful resource for the erosion of cavities or holes of small dimensions.

 

       

       It permits the cut of two profiles with different geometry, a very important resource for extrusion tools. The variable conicalness of the 4 axes is simultaneously determined, it permits to valuate the design, calculates the perimeter, the cut area and simulates the machining with a realistic image.
   It determines the X and Y coordinates of the various geometrical elements that compose a gear and their correction, permiting to cut gears as they were designed or alter them in the same program.

   The UniCAM permits to change the cut origin without changing the geometry origin. This command is frequently utilized in programs generated from CAD system imported geometries, where the design includes the whole project and only in part is going to be cut in the Wire Electro.

 

   Another very useful resource is the cut reference point definition. In this option, it is possible to change the cut reference without changing the part origin. This resource is frequently used when the part is very large and it is necessary to move it on the machine. In that case, there should be any condition to zero the design origin. Thus, the user can choose another position for the part and assign a new reference.
   A very common situation occurs in the cut of molds and guides that were valuated from the vertex, but were not rectified and are out of square. In that case, a guide hole may be used as reference.

    The cut technology repeat permits to repeat the same cut technology applied in a certain profile and in all the other identical profiles. This option prevents the definition of new profiles and the configuration of all the technological parameters for each profile to be cut.

     In the 3D UniCAM were added resources that make possible for the user, from a 3D model, to generate programs to be used by 4 shaft Wire Electro machines.
    Also in the 3D UniCAM, a new resource for the model partial extraction permits the creation of electrodes or inserts to complement the mold. The new part created can be complemented with surfaces created from curves extracted from the surfaces. The electrodes can be machined with reduction values (GAP).
