Description
Machine-Aware
Machine-aware CAM programming simplifies CNC programming while increasing tool life, reducing cycle times, and improving machine performance.
ESPRIT's patent-pending machine-aware algorithms use a digital twin of the CNC machine, tooling, and workholding to drive programming, optimization, and simulation.
Operates from a digital twin of the machine, part setup, and cutting tool assemblies to reflect real machine capabilities.
Powers advanced functions from high-speed machining to post processing and toolpath generation.
Enables programmers to fully exploit the capabilities of specific machine tools.
Adaptive Machining
Adaptive cycles support milling, turning, inspection, additive and part-handling operations on mills, lathes, Swiss-type, and mill-turn machines.
Single software and unified user interface for programming any machine in the shop.
Supports milling on lathes and turning on mills; provides part handling cycles for diverse machine types.
Machine-independent programming: change machine or setup and the program updates automatically.
Machine Swap
AI engine updates programs automatically when setup or machine changes, accounting for the chosen machine's physical capabilities.
Automatic detection of setup modifications such as workpiece split, reposition, eject, and transfer using machine awareness.
AI reorganizes short-run and production programs to maximize concurrency across parts and optimize total cycle time.
Process Plans
ESPRIT AI adapts available tools and functions to the machine’s capabilities and the job setup.
From the process plan (part operations and part view), the AI engine sequences the program to minimize cycle time.
Part View: process plan focused on an individual part.
Machine View: the program as executed on the machine.
Stock-Aware Toolpath
ESPRIT dynamically optimizes toolpaths using the real-time state of the stock to eliminate air cuts and reduce repositioning.
Includes high-performance cycles such as ProfitMilling® (2- to 5-axis high-speed roughing) and ProfitTurning™ (high-speed turning, facing, grooving) to shorten cycle times and extend tool life.
Feedrate optimization for smooth acceleration and maximum velocity.
Rotary machining integrated with all cycles; solutions optimized for 3+2 and 5-axis cutting.
In-process stock models maintain current stock state to eliminate unnecessary moves.
Automatic Links
The AI engine automatically creates collision-free rapid moves between cutting cycles, optimized for machine, tooling, and setup.
Automated positioning distinguishes short-run links (conservative, multiple restart points) and production links (tuned for minimal cycle times).
Respects machine travel limits, provides optimized rotary solutions for 3+2 and 5-axis positioning, and supports RTCP for 5-axis programming.
Simulation, Analysis, Verification
Animated visualization of the entire machining process including stock, fixtures, and clamps with solid-shaded graphics.
Real-time kinematic display for accurate verification of machine motion.
Built-in part inspection to compare the as-designed part to the as-machined workpiece and ensure accuracy.
Analysis tools include detailed toolpath views and remaining-stock color maps for verification and comparison.
