Using a Pentium or higher based computer, you can create CAD/CAM graphic part images then download the auto-generated part programming code directly into the machine tool. The basic system is a low-cost package with numerous features capable of creating 3D wireframe geometry.   Level 10 is for 2, 3 or 4 axis parametric programming without surfacing and includes automatic post processing for either a Mill, Lathe, EDM, Router, WaterJet, Flame Cutter or Laser.  Level 10 includes all of the Level 5 features plus a customizable utility language which allows you to create new user-defined features for your own application.  Level 10 also supports all machine types in one package. LEVEL 10 FEATURES: Multiple machine tool configurations. 3D paths are created using 2D contours that slice the part in the Z axis by stepping up or down. Utilities are provided for Surface of Revolution, Swept Surface, Ruled Surface, Cross Section and Top + Cross Section. Automatic gear utilities enable the user to create a gear program by just answering a few questions. Create your own new feature customized to your specifications with a question and answer format as a standard feature.  Create a "Family of Parts" using the included 3D utility language. Parametric programming containing hundreds of 2D and 3D math commands, logic statements, decision making commands and character, word and string manipulations to parametrically alter your parts by changing one value. Included utilities: Family of Parts Auto Grooving Clean Out Boxes Conical Shapes All Fanuc Lathe Canned Cycles Helix Lathe Center Drill & Pecking 4 Axis Rotary Tables Spiral Roughing Thread Cutting Individually Modify Each Axis 3D Cross Sections Create Tabs Hole Patterns Library Ruled Surfaces Multiple Step Down Tool Paths in the Z Axis Bend or Twist Parts Harmonic Cams Constant Velocity Cams Cylindrical Projections Flattening a Part Lathe Part Off Routine 3D Path Created from a Top and Side View Surface of Revolution Wrap a Part in 3D Create Box with 4 Radii Ask Depth Ask to Select a Tool Path with the Mouse Select a File Ask Speed Feed Tool Number Tool Size Rapid Plane Machining Plane Retrieve Information from Tool Libraries Copy a Tool Path while Changing Something in It Reverse Tool Path Direction Optimize Tool Path Motions and Hole Patterns Group the Same Tools Together Search Geometry Database Change Geometry Search Tool Paths Change Tool Paths 4 Axis Mill and Lathe support LEVEL 5 FEATURES: Solid modeled tool animation with verification, which shows material removal with light source shading and zooming. Simulator shows scallops made by the tool to show you the real finish. 6 Automatic Mill Roughing features: Zig-Zag Spiral Visual Roughing Drill Constant Velocity Swirl Roughing Z Level Roughing 9 Automatic Lathe Roughing features: OD Valley Facing Turning Profile Casting Boundary Groove Tapered File transfers to and from your machine tool in a remote/unattended automatic mode. LEVEL 1 FEATURES: Powerful CAD drawing features: 23 line features, 15 circle/arc features and point features with direct 3D drawing tools. Look ahead tool compensation. CAD links to most popular packages: IGES, AutoCad, DXF, CadKey, Gerber, HPGL, Excellon, CMM, Catia CL and APT CL. Multiple graphic viewports each capable of being resized and relocated and having their own zoom factor, rotation and viewable layer. Smooth out 3D splines and tool paths by only giving a value from 1 to 10. RS232 DNC Communications - send and receive files from your machine tool while programming your next part. Choose from up to 700 machine tool off-the-shelf post processors included free. Graphic post processor that ties together the move that is graphically responsible for a line of G code as it interactively shows you your G code listing. Insert prompts and questions into your post to ask you questions that can change your G code output and flow while you are posting. Intelligent Post. (Optional) Automatically purges redundant geometry and corrects mismatched endpoints within a specified tolerance all without user interaction. Imports machine code and turns it into geometry as a standard feature. Allows you to incorporate photos, user notes, vendor information, time reports, tooling information and verbal messages into a job plan. Calculates total job running time and total distance traveled as a standard feature. Create a job plan that contains part and vendor names, due dates, quantities, materials needed, tooling list, fixture information and photos. Create your own extensive scanned photo-realistic tool libraries that calculate your feed and speed.
