Grinding wheels all wear out, and when they do, a dresser unit is required to maintain cutting shape. The trouble is, this process gradually changes the wheel's overall diameter, affecting its performance.
Vericut’s Grinder-Dressing simulation module allows manufacturers to reproduce the CNC grinding and dressing process digitally, and determine whether their tools are performing their jobs with the utmost precision.
As CNC grinding wheels reduce in size, machine components get closer to your parts, creating a higher risk of collision. The Grinder-Dressing module forewarns users by checking the clearance between the machine component and the part, alerting them if things get too close for comfort.
Once dressing has been applied to a grinding wheel, its diameter and machining behavior can change, leading to inconsistent results. The Grinder-Dressing module allows manufacturers to digitally simulate and analyze the new wheel shape before letting it loose on the real machine.
The Grinder-Dressing module is expertly paired with Vericut CNC simulation software for 3, 4, and, in particular, 5-axis applications, where the addition of expensive spindles and complex tool paths amplify the possibility of an error, collision, or close call.
Add the Grinder-Dressing module to your Vericut verification software, and feel confident that your grinding wheels are always up for the task.
