Hello first post on this forum.
Im a CadCam programmer using Edgecam.
I program a varity of machines from basic 3 axis verticals (brother) right through to state-of-the-art full simultanious 5 axis (mazak variaxis, vtc)
Just wondering what the benefits of verification software such as Vericut, Camplete, NCSimul etc over the built in machine simulation that comes with Edgecam are?
The simulation on Edgecam is created through the post processors supplied by Vero and simulates full machine kinematics, so collision checks against a real representation of our machines and setups.
Is there any real benefit of using a third party simulator over the edgecam simulation because from what I can gather they look pretty similar?
Thanks
