CAD / CAM software for 5-axis machining
SICUBE® S.I. Engineering s.r.l

3-dimensional laser cutting technology.

SICUBE is a system that enables 5 and 6 axis continuous laser cutting machines to be operated automatically. When combined with SI[CAD], SICUBE enables three-dimensional model mathematics to be imported and modified or completely recreated. Here the term mathematics refers to shapes on which cutting paths can be generated.

By means of a high precision analysis of the surfaces and curves to be cut, the system decides the beginning and ending procedures and moves the laser cutting head to a perpendicular position above the relative points on the cutting path, defining the technological laser parameters on the basis of the work rules set by the user.

The program guarantees a risk free cutting path thanks to a monitoring module as well as specifically checking for possible collisions between the laser head and parts of the piece to be cut or any securing tools that may be used to hold the piece in place. A dynamic simulation of the workpiece, the securing system and the laser head including highlights of the 5-axis head rotation can also be viewed before the part program to be used is generated on the machine computer.

FEATURES

SICUBE consists of the following modules:
- SI[CAD]: 3D geometry
