Intuitive General End Mill
Design
General
end mill design has become more intuitive with automatic dimension correction
and wizard feedback.

Transfer Function Visualization
Transfer
functions can now be plotted and visualized in CUTPRO® with this
feature, verifying transfer functions becomes a lot more convenient whether
user specifies dynamic parameters, measured or fitted transfer function.
|
|
|
|
Powerful Plots
Result plots have been greatly improved
for more effective post-simulation analysis. New plots are equipped with
powerful controls such as plot zooming, cursor tracing, and instantaneous
data display. |
|
Material
Database
|
|
An Improved Database for
All Machining Operations
Material database has been redesigned and
remodeled. Predictions for milling, turning, boring, and drilling are now
more accurate with improved force model based on rake face geometry, cutting
speed, and chip thickness.
|
|
|
New Materials
New materials have been added to the
database reaching more than 130 materials represented in 12 standards
including DIN, SI, AISI, and UK.
|
MALTF:
Shop Friendly Multi Channel Impact Modal Testing Software
|
|
|
|
|
Tabbed View
Multiple measurements are conveniently
tabbed and color coded, making MALTF extremely powerful to compare and
analyze measurement data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Diagnosis
With push of a button, MALTF checks state
of the hardware set up and minimizes potential measurement errors due to user
or hardware related mistakes. If an error occurs during diagnosis, source of
the error is identified and reported back to the user.
|
|
|
Not Only a Facelift But a Brand
New Interface
New MALTF interface has been developed
following the latest standards to make it more powerful, user-friendly, fast,
and robust.
|
|
|
Support for New DevicesMALTF now supports all National
Instrument USB devices, and automatically modifies settings based on the
selected sensor type. |
MALDAQ:
Versatile Multi Channel Data Acquisition Software
|
|
More Cursor Controls
Cursor in MALDAQ is not a simple arrow figure
anymore. New MALDAQ’s cursor has been supplemented with many functions such
as plot, pan, and zoom controls. Interacting with data is a lot easier now.
|
|
|
Kalman Filtering: Is Your Force Measurement Reliable?Accurate measurement of cutting forces at
high speeds has been almost impossible due to distortion of dynamometer
reading. After years of research, we successfully designed a user friendly
Kalman filter to compensate dynamometer’s dynamic errors and eliminate
unnecessary amplification or attenuation of cutting force. This is an
essential and unique tool for all high speed cutting force measurements.
|
|
|
Log ControlsQuick look provides a snapshot of the
logged data. Using quick look, you can set log range using the mouse only.
|
|
|
Simpler yet More Functional FFT WindowFFT window is redesigned with a simpler
interface. Radio buttons are replaced with intuitive figures for cursor
controls, harmonic, and chatter detection.
|
|
|
Support for New DevicesMALDAQ now supports all National
Instrument USB devices, and automatically recognizes hardware type to recommend
correct sampling rates.
|
Modal
Analysis
|
|
Quick and Automatic Mode DetectionUsing highly advanced mathematical
algorithms, Modal Analysis detect the possible modes automatically while
allowing the user to select or disregard indicated modes.
|
|
|
New Curve Fitting AlgorithmNew curve fitting algorithms reflect the
latest research in experimental mechanics world, and produce the most
accurate results a lot faster than its predecessor.
|
|
|
Multiple MeasurementsMultiple FRF measurements can be seen in
the background.
|
|
|
Simpler InterfaceNew simplified Modal Analysis interface helps
users to identify the modal parameters in matter of seconds. Just select the
modes you want to add and click “Update”. |
Drilling
Module: New Member of the CUTPRO® Family
|
|
Process SimulationSimulate cutting forces, spindle power
and torque for a given drilling condition. Drilling Module can handle various
types of drills including “Conventional Twist Drill”, “Point Thinned Drill”,
Special Lip Geometry Drill” and “Indexable Drill”
|
|
|
Forced VibrationsConsider drill’s lateral, axial, and/or
twist vibrational modes to run a forced vibration simulation and obtain
dynamic cutting forces, tool tip vibration, and spindle torque/power.
|
|
|
Stability LobesEstimate stability limits of a drill –
machine tool couple, and plan for production ahead of the time.
|
SpindlePro
|
|
Cold – Hot Spindle AnalysisSpindlePro users now have an option to
include thermal deformations in mechanical analysis. A new easy to use
dialogue box allows users to import thermal deformations obtained from FE
packages like ANSYS®.
|
|
|
User Defined Bearing DisplacementsIt is made possible for users to define
additional displacements at bearings.
|
|
|
Additional Preload SettingsNew SpindlePro contains more pre-load
settings. Users have an option to change nodal force representation of
pre-load especially when thermal deformations are considered in the analysis.
|
|
|
Comprehensive HelpNow everything you need to know about
SpindlePro functions is on-line and at your fingertips. The F1 key, or
the “Help” buttons will take you right to the information you need.
