CAD/CAM/PPS Software for MicroStep machines

MSF Compact • MasterCut • WaterCut | Fully automatic unfolding, nesting, lasering, plasma- & oxycutting

MicroStep has a long tradition in the production of high quality laser, water, plasma and oxyfuel cutting machines.

WiCAM developed the first postprocessors for MicroStep machines already in the early 2000s.

Today hundreds of MicroStep machines produce and communicate with the PN software of WiCAM.

Especially the PPS-connectivity, the common cuts and the combination with any production method of other manufacturers enable our customers with MicroStep machines already today integrated ‘Next-Level’ automation solutions.

| Harm Dunnink, Managing Director of Dulasta:

“Special features such as bevel cutting, common cut and part marking are an integral part of the automatic programming chain. The part preparation is manufacturer independent, so that changing machines and cutting technology does not cause any time delay.Right after the production process, PN4000 transmits the real-time data for the release of the further production steps and for post-calculation to the ERP system.”

CAD/CAM Software Solution for MicroStep machines

The manufacturer-independent CAD/CAM/Nesting system for all well-known machines – and all PPS/ERP and CAD systems. Control your machinery IT-integrated, fully automatic – and, if desired, decentralized. The powerful solutions of WiCAM ensure maximum productivity today and create the flexibility for the challenges of tomorrow.

Fullautomation

PN4000 is the CAD / CAM / Nesting system for PPS / ERP-driven programming of CNC cutting, punching and portal milling machines of all kinds. The various modules and interfaces enable flexible job shop manufacturing, up to unmanned fully automated, industrial process chains.

Basic Functions

  • Cross-module data flow
  • Concept and detaile functions completely automatable
  • Manual changes at the component and on the nesting at any time
  • Optimizer for shortest moving distances and process times
  • Free definable macros
  • Nesting of any geometries

Oxyfuel / Plasma

Special functions are available for oxyfuel and plasma systems. For example, bevel information can be interpreted in CAD and automatically converted into correct processing.

Laser

Lasern automates the programming of laser systems. The application has material and sheet thickness-dependent databases. Complex geometry shapes, contour sizes, labeling and special machining of a component are automatically detected and processed optimally.

Waterjet

For waterjet systems the following functions are available.

Funktionen

  • Automatic contour cutting with leadin/-out, with collision control
  • Automatic recognition of different cutting qualities and parameters
  • Support of multi-burner units
