eluCad makes it easy to program profile machining centres. This user-friendly software is designed so that the user does not have to program using ISO code directly – all that is required is the entry of the data in a logically structured graphic user interface. Operating the program is intuitive, can be customised and is characterised by practical functionality. A 3D view provides a clear overview by displaying the designed parts realistically on the screen. The profile machining software can take data from various different design programs and process them further. eluCad generates the machining program and optimises the tools and machining paths for the selected profile machining centre. A collision check prevents expensive machine crashes and associated down times. New tools can be created quickly and easily in the software.
