What is inside SSCNC

A real time 3D simulator, built on OpenGL, for lathes and machining centers.

Precision machined metal parts on a steel surface

Simulation

  • Full simulation of setup, programming and operation
  • Realistic operator panels of every maker
  • Coolant, chips and machine sounds
  • 3D measurement of the part and surface finish
  • Editable material and tool libraries

Programming

  • G-code parser to ISO 1056
  • Find and fix errors before the machine
  • Canned cycles, macros and parameters
  • Verify code from MasterCAM, SolidCAM and Cimatron

Machine operation

  • Work and tool offsets, G54 to G59
  • Electronic handwheel, JOG, MDI, Single Block
  • Collision alarms with the part or the machine
  • 4, 8 or 12 station turret, horizontal or vertical tool magazine

Classroom server

Students sign in to the local server. The instructor uploads exercises, shares a screen, watches every student screen and runs auto graded tests.

Portable FANUC control panel connected to the simulator

Physical control panels

For schools and training centers: a real system panel and operator panel that plug into a PC and work with the simulator. The same keys, the same handwheel, the same habits as on the machine. Also available as a portable all in one unit with a touch screen and built in computer.

  • Panels matched to the controller you choose (FANUC, SIEMENS and others)
  • Standard PC connection, simple setup
  • HDMI and USB ports for classroom projection

Priced per configuration
