Adaptive Post-Processing Technology



ICAM Technologies Corporation has announced the launch of its Adaptive Post-Processing V22, the latest version of its integrated post-processing, simulation and optimization technology.

Adaptive Post-Processing is new technology that changes traditional CNC programming methodology by creating an integrated environment for the independent steps of post-processing, tool path optimization and G-code simulation.

This methodology allows all these steps to be executed simultaneously permitting cross-communication among them and thereby allowing for automatic tool path corrections, all in one concurrent operation.

This integrated solution allows for the in-process evaluation of feedback from the post-processor and machining simulator to automatically create an optimized NC program for a target CNC machine. This occurs all in one step and in one process, allowing CAD/CAM users to automatically reduce NC programming and machining cycle time.

"The iterative steps of the traditional serial method of tool path creation, post-processing, machine simulation and G-code verification most often generate errors, leaving the tedious investigative work as to where the errors occurred in the hands of the NC programmer," said a company spokesperson.

"ICAM's Adaptive Post-Processing solution not only eliminates these errors while reducing programming time, but also allows the programmer to adopt ICAM's philosophy to `create tool paths for the part' as opposed to the traditional method of programming the part for the machine while worrying about its kinematics and collisions. Creating tool paths while using Adaptive Post-Processing also eliminates the reprogramming of the part for a new target CNC machine," continued the spokesperson.
