3D IMPORT WITH 3D DXF TECHNOLOGY

Go from "solid to part" seamlessly. Eliminate extra steps. The newest control feature from Hurco is the skills gap buster shops need.

Solid Model Import allows you to import a customer's 3D solid model in .stp file format into the control system. This feature is particularly beneficial for 5-sided programming as it automatically generates the necessary transform planes. These transform planes serve as the fundamental building blocks that facilitate easy 5-sided programming in Hurco machines.

For all Hurco CNC machines, the ability to import stp files and selectively choose specific features to be machined significantly enhances productivity. For instance, you can easily select the floor of a pocket and identify the top of the pocket. The model will automatically provide the pocket depth, eliminating the need for manual input. After selecting a tool and verifying speeds and feeds, you can commence the machining process without any further delay.

Benefits of Solid Model Import:

  • Simplified programming: The feature streamlines the programming process, making it more efficient and less complex.
  • Time-saving: By eliminating the need to manually enter feature dimensions, Solid Model Import saves valuable time.
  • Preservation of accuracy: The imported solid model ensures that the machining process maintains a high level of precision.
  • Click-and-cut operation: Instead of inputting dimensions, you can simply click on the desired features and proceed with cutting.
  • Automatic creation of transform planes: The system generates transform planes automatically, easing the process of 5-sided conversational programming without requiring manual data entry.
