FASTCURVE

Product OverviewFASTCURVE is intelligent and high-performance offline programming software for 3D contours in a robotic environment. Several technologies are supported, from laser cutting, water jet cutting and ultrasound cutting, and sealing and roller hemming to laser hardening and laser cladding.The various complex processes of 3D contour processing can be realized with FASTCURVE quickly, efficiently and in high quality, thanks to the seamless integration into the powerful CATIA/DELMIA V5 infrastructure, several automatic functions, integrated programming, comprehensive CAD/CAM ability and the simulation of the entire robot cell. Product Advantages Fully integrated 3D programming, simulation and process verification Definition, simulation and validation of complex robot cells incl. robot, fixture, clamping mechanism and auxiliary axis systems Practice-proven and comfortable fixture construction which can be processed, nested and programmed in 2D, and also exported to external 2D systems (incl. UHF programming options) Free positioning as well as calibration function to align fixtures and component Geometry-based algorithms for the calculation of optimum, collision-free tool paths Parametric programming Versatile teach and optimization functions Macro recognition for standard geometries (circle, rectangle, hexagon, keyhole, etc.) Professional data preparation of contour and surface, intelligent contouring with contour search algorithms and definition of processing direction (regular, tangential) Precise control simulation (RRS) Reliable robot programs
