Used to program CNC mills, lathes, wire EDM machines, turn-mill centers and swiss-type lathes, the latest version of PartMaker software includes a new full-machine simulation model. A 3D model of the machine containing the programmed part enables the user to ensure that a program generated off-line will work with the machine before actually running it. The simulated machine model incorporates machine-specific toolholders and attachments to detect any possible collisions or errors off-line in the user's PC.
