Vericut Optimizer

Vericut Optimizer is a standalone physics-based NC program optimisation solution that analyses and optimises toolpaths to improve machining conditions in tool life, cycle times, and part quality. 

Vericut Optimizer helps to achieve maximum efficiency in your NC programs. It optimizes cutting conditions to the specific material, cutting tool, and machining conditions to avoid overloads, minimizes tool breakage, and improve process reliability resulting in significant time, energy and cost savings.

Vericut Optimizer maximizes and optimal the chip thickness by adjusting cutting conditions to match the exact cutting tool performance parameters. 

It analyses and recalculates optimal feed rates in the NC program block by block to maintain a constant, ideal chip thickness. By segmenting toolpath motions directly within the NC code, it tightly controls material removal while minimizing peak cutting forces and spindle power demand.

Vericut Optimizer unlocks a wide range of machining efficiencies across your shop floor, enabling smarter, data-driven decision-making. It doesn’t just speed up your machining, it optimizes feed rates for safety, process stability, and energy efficiency.

With Vericut Optimizer you can expect:

• Significant cycle time savings of 10% - 40% reduction.
• Consistent chip thickness throughout the machining process.
• Significant improvement in cutting tool life and performance, at the same time improving machined part quality.
• CAM-generated toolpaths, APT/CL-file or G-code NC programs from any CAM system can be optimized.
• Standalone NC program optimization solution, making it a versatile and independent optimisation tool, that seamlessly integrates into existing manufacturing workflows.
• Quick setup and ease of use, allowing NC programs to be optimized in just a few clicks.

Vericut Optimizer enables your shop floor to work smarter and more productivity.

• Faster parts production and shorter time-to-market.
• Increased manufacturing capacity without investing more machines.
• Improved profitability and minimized unplanned downtime.
• More efficient use of cutting tools and machine tools.
• Greater consistency from part to part and job to job.
• Confidence that your machines are performing at their true capability.

Vericut Optimizer provides powerful analytics and actionable data that manufacturers can use to create their highest performing NC programs. Here are some of the capabilities available:

• Visual analysis from the Graph Chart window.
• Side-by-side comparison between the original and optimized NC program.
• Clear identification of inefficiencies cutting conditions, excessive forces, and more.
• Detailed, cut-by-cut performance data for both original and optimized NC programs, including forces, power and torque, chip thickness, material removal rates, machine tool utilisation, tool deflections, and feed rates.

Vericut Optimizer optimizes both new and legacy NC programs to achieve the highest possible efficiency within safe cutting limits. Dynamic, adaptive, trochoidal, and other high-efficiency toolpaths achieve measurable gains through intelligent feed rate optimization.

Vericut Optimizer protects your original NC program by generating a new, standalone NC program rather than overwriting the existing one. The optimized NC program can be generated using a user-defined file extension to match the target machine control.

Yes. Vericut Optimizer lets you view the original and optimized NC program side by side for instant visual comparison in just one click.

No. Vericut Optimizer delivers proven results across automotive, medical, energy, mold and die, and many other industries, empowering manufacturers to achieve higher efficiency, quality and performance.
