2.5 - 5-axis Programming | VISI Machining

VISI Machining 2D provides a practical, intuitive, and simple solution for CNC programming including 4 and 5-axis indexing. VISI Machining 3D creates intelligent toolpaths on the most complex 3D parts. VISI Auto Tilting capability converts traditional 3-axis toolpath to 5-axis operations which dramatically increases the number of strategies available to cover any scenario.

Programming for electrode machining | VISI Electrode

Once the electrode has been designed, it can be machined directly (without data transfer, or data losses) using VISI Electrode Machining module. A datum for machining and positioning the electrode in the EDM machine is automatically created to ensure continuity throughout the entire manufacturing process.
