ESPRIT

Esprit - CAM system for CNC programming

Esprit is a modular and universal Native Windows product for NC programming of milling, turning, mill-turn and EDM machines. Powered by Parasolid.

It can be coupled with ANY CAD system available on the market. Own ESPRIT API for extensions as well as Microsoft VBA as standard macro language are available. Optional direct interfaces to Catia V4/V5, Pro/E, Unigraphics, STL and STEP are also available.

Integrated 3D volume simulation for manufacturing control.

The software is easy to learn and use. It offers an excellent price/performance ratio.

ESPRIT can be used for any class of CNC machines. The CAM system uses a kind of digital clone of the CNC machine. This simplifies the programming process and also saves time because the finished NC code can be used directly. No further processing is necessary.

The software maps a wide range of machine types. Machining processes for two- to five-axis milling are supported, as are long lathes, high-speed toolpaths, in-machine inspection (probing) and additive direct energy deposition.

Features:

• use of a digital copy of your CNC machine
• part machining cycles for milling machines, lathes or mill/turn machines
• feed rate optimization
• rotary machining
• optimized rotary solutions for 3+2 and 5-axis machining
• fully automated positioning movements
• RTCP connections
• simulation
• analysis
• verification, comparison
• analytics
• calculation of minimum tool length
• real-time adjustment of roughing and re-roughing operations
• milling of flat areas
• overlapping milling
• fillet milling
• roughing/rest roughing
• z-constant milling
• import CAD Feature Structure (FX)
• import Product Manufacturing Information (PMI)

The software is the right choice for industrial applications. It supports applications from contract manufacturing to large-scale plant engineering. It supports a seamless workflow from CAD design to machine-optimized NC code.
