Offer: Update for XpertMILL V2
In order to ensure that the users of XpertMILL V1 milling software
are always up-to-date, we now offer a special 20 % discount on the
update for Version 2.
Example: You work with XpertMILL V1 and
the expansion modules Xpert[DRAW] and
Xpert[CAM]. Then the update for the V2
only costs you 153.60 Euro incl. VAT instead
of 192.00 Euro incl. VAT.
What does the XpertMILL Version 2 offer?
With the aid of the new Version 2 of the
successful XpertMILL milling software and
a close collaboration with users, we have
managed to realise a timely re-launch of
this effective software product, thus, enabling
us to provide numerous new features,
among other things, the long-awaited
setting of fixed links.
Professional version
• In order to provide data protection, milling
data can be protected by a read lock
or write lock or be released in Xpert-
MILL V2.
• The new Teach-in function makes it possible
to approach existing components
and to take over their X, Y and Z positions
or to post-process their contours.
• The administration of up to 65000 milling
levels is possible for particularly complex
components, 256 of which are now
pre-definable with regard to description,
colour, line thickness and line type.
• For all those who need most precise
time specifications for their calculations,
Version V2 is equipped with an operating
hour counter for the programme,
machine and spindle running time.
• Due to the possibility of importing STL
volume data, the visualisation of 3D milling
is improved.
• This other industrial version of Xpert-
MILL V2 also provides the automatic assignment
of object parameters for levels.
What does that mean? Milling data
is often already divided into levels in the
CAD programme. Thus, inner contours
are applied to level 1, outer contours
to level 2, pockets to level 3 and bores
to level 4. If then, as is usual in practice,
a part with more or less changes
should repeatedly recur, the XpertMILL
V2 now provides the possibility to assign
the complete milling technology to each
level (e.g. contour parameter, tool, milling
depth, material thickness, infeed)
and, thus, save a great deal of preparation
time. This becomes quite evident
based on the production of front panels
with several variants for various meters.
The average duration of the setting
of milling parameters, when performed
by a practiced user, amounts to approximately
10 to 15 minutes, depending on
the variant. Therefore, with an assumed
number of 15 variants, the XpertMILL
V2 can now save around 2.5 to almost 4
hours of time due to the automatic assignment.
• The support of length test switches,
measuring plate and measuring pin is
now also included.
• Remote function for teleindication.
• The screen display colour for the application
area, the selection, the machine,
the object contour and the background
is adjustable and, thus, provides
the comfort of an optimal and individual
alignment to the control PC and monitor.
• Object contour and identification can be
preset.
• The formerly optional Xpert[3D] expansion
module is now integrated in the basic
version of XpertMILL V2.
Xpert[DRAW] (optional)
• The text editor of the optional
Xpert[DRAW] expansion module has
been improved so that several lines of
text with alignment are now possible.
• The AutoText with serial number function
is also now included in Xpert[DRAW].
• Xpert[DRAW] now also provides the creation
of 3D spirals, as well as multipoint
processing and improved planning function.
Xpert[CAM] (optional)
• In the likewise optional Xpert[CAM] expansion
module of version 2, the particular
highlight is the new possibility
of setting fixed links, without having to
change the respective object itself (see
screenshot).
Change to XpertMill V2 now. Set fixed links without changing ... ... the object with Xpert[CAM] module.
