High-performance SYMplus™ control simulators for CNC machines
The intelligent control simulators in the SYMplus™ CNC software use a control-neutral interface in which most of the commands and cycles of the real control are exactly simulated.
Input dialogs and context help images are provided for all supported commands and cycles – so you can easily learn how to program the original control and check it using the modern 2D and 3D simulation graphics.
In production, the control simulators of the SYMplus™ CNC software support the manufacturing process by allowing you to post-edit and retest a post-processor generated program if necessary. This is particularly advantageous if the original control is already older, editing at the control is cumbersome and the graphics are not very meaningful.
Control simulators for CNC machines are always offered for a specific control. See below which control simulators are available in SYMplus™ CNC software:
- PAL turning 2 axes
- PAL milling 3 axes
For the cutting machine operators there are optional extensions to 4 axes in turning or 3+2 axes in milling:
- PAL C/Y
- PAL 3+2
For the occupational groups that only require basic CNC knowledge, there is the possibility of didactically reducing the number of commands:
- DIN basic training
