sprutcam 7 user guide introduction to sprutcam parameters by default the resulting machine process is very accurate and efficient with minimum loss of time as all unnecessary tool movements can be eliminated it is suitable for both traditional as well as high speed cutting of any material 5 actual workpiece state considering the first machining cycle uses the start workpiece,to generate the toolpath after that the workpiece form is updated so the next cycle uses the updated workpiece to generate its own toolpath photo-realistic simulation the user can see exactly how the part is going to be machined either in a step by step mode or variable speed continuous mode as if a video tape is being played back he can choose the color of the various tools used the stock material and the intended final shape for better understanding of the operation should it be desirable to change any part or parameter of the cycle it is easy to go back to the machining operation and modify it and then return to the simulation toolpaths followed by each tool can also be seen in different colors postprocessor once the machining cycle is accepted the program can automatically generate an nc program to suit the user s machine or cnc system besides the long list of available posts available and willingness of sprut technology to develop posts to the user s requirements and request it is also possible for the user to generate new posts or modify existing ones by using the inbuilt invariant processor 6 7 with the powerful sprutcam system the user can confidently undertake fast machining of very accurate parts be they very complex 3d models or simple engraving or pocketing and in any material typically it can be used to machine punches spark erosion electrodes plastic moulds machine parts decorative elements nameplates etc because it is truly windows based and very easy and intuitive to use you will be up and running with minutes of installing the software and we encourage you to follow the supplied tutorials which teach you and demonstrate how easy it is to use the system 1.1 base cofigurations the sprutcam ® system is supplied in a few basic configurations the configurations differ mainly in the availability of machining cycles sprutcam pro the most complete version containing operations for the 2d 3d milling engraving cutting and turning of models including engraving and edm designed for undertaking many tasks on 2-5 axis milling machines lathes cutters and turn-milling centers sprutcam master the version containing operations for the 2d 3d milling engraving cutting and turning of models including engraving designed for undertaking many tasks on 2-5 axis milling machines lathes cutters and turn-milling centers sprutcam expert the most complete milling version containing operations for the 2d 3d milling engraving and cutting designed i-2 © 2009 jsc sprut technology

sprutcam 7 user guide brief and to the point 2 brief and to the point 2.1 ideology of sprutcam sprutcam ® is a system with high levels of automation and a multitude of advanced functions the machining process creation procedure consists of the following actions at first it is necessary to define a model of the produced part an initial workpiece and fixtures next it is need to create a machining sequence operation by operation a technologist should define what and how musts be machined for every operation usually those are a portion of the produced part or the full part and general requirements for the machining process such as the height of the scallop maximum cut angle approach methods etc then the system calculates the optimal toolpath according to the specified parameters as default every next operation uses the same part and fixtures as the previous operation but this one takes a material that remained after the previous operation machining as a workpiece therefore the intermediate workpiece form is changing operation by operation from the initial workpiece to the produced part actions sequence to obtain an nc program for a cnc machine is follow is following usually to import a geometrical model to define a model of the produced part the initial workpiece and fixtures for the root node of the operations list to create a sequence of machining operations to set theirs parameters and to calculate them to generate an nc program when creating a new machining operation the system automatically sets the default values for the entire set of operation parameters taking into account the method of machining and geometrical parameters of the part thus the toolpath is ready for calculation and it is not need to fill many parameters before modification of the order of the machining operations and editing their parameters is possible at any stage of the machining process designing sprutcam always observes the rule the part must never be gouged for any circumstances whether it is a work pass transition approach cut or drilling that does not depend on the tool type or on the type of machining or parameters entered a technologist defines the machining method and the system generates an nc program that removes the workpiece material from outside of the part the interface of sprutcam allows the customer to alter any parameter in any order that is they required the active graphics in many of the dialogues are automatically updated when a customer selects different operations or parameters this allows to significantly reducing the time needed to get to know the system and the time spent reading the documentation sprut-technology is always looking at how to improve their software products to make them convenient to use and boost your profits therefore our technical support department will gladly to answer for any your question and it will be grateful for your suggestions and wishes ii-1 © 2009 jsc sprut technology
