Downtime in CNC production? Not with KELLER! (Customer Case Study)
Stuck with a tricky machining job and no solution in sight? One of our customers recently faced the same challenge…
❓The Problem:
Their CNC control system couldn’t handle two opposing 3-start flat threads on a stretch roller (Ø152, length approx. 3m). A costly delay seemed inevitable.
💡The Solution:
With SYMplus™, they got back on track—fast! A custom macro allowed them to rough and finish the threads using standard grooving tools in multiple small passes. No downtime, no hassle—just smooth production.
- Got a machining challenge of your own? Let’s solve it together!

Create a real NC program from PAL G-code
Can I use programs written with PAL G-Code directly on the CNC machine with your software? – We get asked this question quite often. Answer: Yes, you can!
With SYMplus™, you can transfer your PAL program to the machine in just a few easy steps:
1️⃣ Generate the NC program – Simply select the appropriate controller, e.g., SIEMENS, HEIDENHEIN, or HAAS, and choose the storage location.
2️⃣ Transfer the program – Via network, USB, or serial interface.
3️⃣ Final test on the controller – Use the simulation graphic to check if everything is correct.
Done! This is how a PAL program becomes real CNC production!
