VX Corporation created major productivity and machining quality enhancements to the QuickMill? suite of milling tools. VX CAD/CAM's QuickMill? Intelligent Machining Automation captures machining logic into a template or library that can be instantly applied to vast array of other parts. With VX CAD/CAM, users apply their own operating procedures and intelligence to machining.
VX's Quickmill? takes a unique, whole part approach to machining. The user establishes "rules of engagement" to control and contain tool path. VX automates small changes to individual machining operations. This rules-based approach is extremely effective in rest milling operations where the machinist simply wants VX to remove the material that the previous operation didn't remove. The automation comes from machinists storing their logic and intelligence in a template of operations.
QuickMill?, available for both roughing and advanced finishing operations, provides optimum tool loading, extremely efficient material removal, and high quality finished molds to reduce machine wear and tear which improves machine tool utilization and reduces polishing time.
The new SmoothFlow? technology increases tool life and reduces machine wear by keeping the cutter in the material, dramatically reducing rapid moves, and by maintaining a constant chip load. All cutting motions are smooth; corners and tight areas are cleared without taking full width cuts which prevents tool overload for both roughing and finishing operations.
