Discover the latest 2013 NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS features | Hall 4 - Booth D-143

SPRING Technologies, vendor of solutions that enhance the productivity of CNC machines, will exhibit this year again at the 5Oth Paris Air Show edition - Paris Le Bourget - from June 17 to 23.

For many years now, SPRING Technologies collaborates with significant companies in the Aerospace and Defense sector, including AIRBUS, EUROCOPTER, ZODIAC, HISPANO SUIZA, DASSAULT AVIATION, MBDA, ASTRIUM etc.

The company has gained their confidence thanks to its increasingly innovative and efficient solutions that address the key specificities of the sector. Its new NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS portfolio is the right example, supporting the end-to-end manufacturing processes for CNC machines through its smart solutions approach: integrated, smarter, and instrumented.

NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS : 2013 LATEST FEATURES

NCSIMUL Machine 9 : the realistic, immersive, high-performance NC simulation experience

SPRING Technologies, announced on January 24th 2013, its new generation of realistic machining and clamping (drilling, riveting) simulation module, NCSIMUL Machine 9. The company has demonstrated the advantages of the new machining simulation solution − mobility, ergonomics and performance − in the Windows 8 PRO environment.

Users will benefit from a high-performance NC simulation, more realistic and immersive, which integrates all machine, tool, and material parameters.

Moreover, thanks to its close partnership with Intel, NCSIMUL Machine 9 now implements algorithms that have been revised to make optimal use of multi-core processors and multithreading. Collision detection and material removal calculations are performed simultaneously, delivering up to x4 performance gains.

NCSIMUL DNC : Complete NC programs lifecycle management & real time machine status monitoring

Part of the NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS portfolio, NCSIMUL DNC is seamlessly integrated with the other modules. The new module delivers complete management capability for NC machining programs with full traceability of events impacting a program's lifecycle. The control of CNC machines by operators and is safe and easy.

Another benefit, NCSIMUL DNC allows returns machine status, in real time. This means that a machine's status can be reported in real time (with details of output, failures, downtime, setups, etc.) to generate activity reports and more efficient production planning.

The 3D machining movie can be attached to NC programs hence ensuring maximum security for operations and CNC machines.

NCSIMUL Player : when NC programming becomes a fully immersive, collaborative and mobile experience

Easy to implement and use, NCSIMUL PLAYER 9 is the ideal companion to your solutions for machining simulation, DNC and machine status monitoring, and production documentation publication.

More than just a simple viewer, NCSIMUL Player offers not only NC operators but all stakeholders in the machining process a fully interactive, collaborative and mobile experience of the NC program linked to the machining simulation.

By associating the power of 3D with extended viewing functions (program scrolling, material removal, change of viewing angle...) users can:

• Bring high-precision machining simulation data (cutting conditions, total/per tool machining time, etc.) to all stakeholders in the manufacturing process
• Visually present your machining operations in a clear, easy form to customers, suppliers and operators
• Cut costs and deadlines linked to modifications of your machining parameters
