Key features
VirtualGrind®GPro offers many features that are enhanced after each update.
Tool Sketcher
« Tool Sketcher » software helps you create 2D drawings quickly and easily from 3D tool simulations directly from VirtualGrind®GPro. The drawing can be exported in DXF format or as a PNG image.
Function editor
In VirtualGrind®Pro, all paths and operations are represented by editable functions, providing maximum flexibility in tool programming.
Job manager
With the Job Manager feature, included as standard in VirtualGrind®Pro software, the user can produce series of tools with different geometries from a blank with the same diameter for unattended production.
Models
VirtualGrind®Pro provides more than 70 examples of different tool programs, making it easy to create new tools.
Measurement during the process
VirtualGrind®Pro integrates automatic compensation functionality by making measurements during the machining process, which is convenient for unattended production.
Stick-Smart
The automatic Stick-Smart system cleans the grinding wheel and therefore guarantees constant cutting power throughout production.
NEW 3D SIMULATION - Version 7
New advantages of 3D simulation version 7.0
To meet the different needs of users, the VirtualGrind®Pro 1.29 programming software now integrates the 7.0 license, which offers many advantages.
Increased speed
Tool simulation is up to 3x faster, depending on the type of application.
Tool center of mass calculation
Version 7.0 introduces a new feature to calculate the tool’s center of mass. The value is calculated and displayed so the operator can balance the tool to reduce vibration during high speed machining.
Floating license
Version 7.0 is sold as a key, so can be used on several different workstations.
Optimized rendering quality
Thanks to this new version, the final simulation rendering is improved to offer a better quality simulated tool.
