SmartCAM Wire EDM™ software provides wirepath for both 2 and 4-axis wire EDM machines. It offers the flexibility and functionality you need today plus a long term growth path for your future needs. Like all SmartCAM®
applications, Advanced Wire EDM is designed to help you reduce your programming time, improve your machining processes. and deliver your customer's parts quicker.
Ease Of Use
SmartCAM Wire EDM runs with the icon-oriented Microsoft Windows XP and Windows
2000 operating systems. SmartCAM Wire EDM's graphical user interface uses manufacturing terminology and logical operational sequences that even first time users will find familiar and experienced users can apply quickly.
Compatibility
SmartCAM Wire EDM takes design information from any CAD system. IGES, DXF and CAMCAD
Standard™ CAM Connections turn design
elements into part profiles properly sequenced for machining.
Shorten Part Delivery Times
SmartCAM Wire EDM provides comprehensive cutting
solutions that help you
get jobs done faster and shorten part delivery
times, including:
-
Robust wirepath creation and editing functions enable you to create and edit complex part profiles and create machine-ready CNC wirepath.
-
True 4-axis surface offset is maintained regardless of the wire taper angle.
-
No core cutting allows unattended roughing operation.
Functionality Saves Time
SmartCAM Advanced Wire EDM offers a range of time-saving solutions, including:
-
Automatic glue stops
-
Dimensioning
-
Gears
-
Roughing & skim passes
-
Simplified taper cutting
-
Subroutine support
-

Eliminate Surprises
Visual verification capabilities improve product quality and save you machine time and material costs.
-
SmartCAM's graphic model will show you how your part will be cut on the machine you specify.
The model will
show you both wirepath and "as cut" surfaces.
-
Custom tool graphics help you visualize special setups. For example, you may create graphics for the wire
which include upper and lower guides.
-
Dimensioning, report generation, and notes capabilities help with shop floor documentation.
Capture Your Manufacturing Expertise
-
Job Operation Planner
The Job Operation Planner is a unique SmartCAM function that helps you organize and store tooling and machining operations information so you can capture proven machining methods and reuse
them.
-
Customization
Almost everything about SmartCAM applications -:from the user interface to the way code is output - can be customized to streamline your work. SmartCAM applications put you, not the computer, in control.
