Machining Simulator
The FANUC Machining Simulator takes the simulation a step further with a realistic machining simulation function so users can virtually manufacture parts in milling or turning environments with realistic kinematics and structure. The simulation
is based on actual CNC position data, not on the G-code program, this provides the most realistic simulation as the virual machine reacts exactly as a real machine would. Manual machine functions like jog, hand-wheel and reference
cycles also work exactly like a real machine. The software also uses color-coded tool paths, back-plot and cut locations to make it easy for users to identify the tool, path and cutting result. Real-time collision detection uses visual
and audio signal to notify users of collisions. The milling simulation include a 21-tool changer and the turning simulation includes a 12-tool turret. Milling tool data can be freely assigned or imported from the CNC Simulator, while
turning uses a predefined set of turning tools that can cover a wide range of applications.
