Benefits And Features

Effortlessly create accurate cutting tool digital twins based on data imported directly from the manufacturer.

Automatic importing

Automatic importing

Save time creating tools, adapters, and assemblies by importing data from tool OEM websites. Data is imported through a direct connection with the OEM or in the form of a Generic Tool Catalog (GTC) file.

Tool and assembly cutting data

Tool and assembly cutting data

Stop duplicating tools to support multiple cutting data scenarios. Store cutting data for tools and assemblies independently based on machine, material, and type of cut.

Accurate digital twins for CAM

Accurate digital twins for CAM

Parametric data isn't always enough to create an accurate digital twin. Easily create accurate digital twins of tools, adapters, and assemblies using 2D and 3D files.
