This Punch hits the Target: Precision Part Grinding with Qg1 STEP-file Interface
Carbide punch production is all about efficient freeform grinding in top-class precision. The right hardware, software, as well as automation engineering are made by SCHNEEBERGER.
Calculating the intersecting line between an oval and a conical surface requires mathematical skills. How would that be defined in a parameter based program or in ISO code? Luckily SCHNEEBERGER’s CAD/CAM-software Qg1 can handle it!
The procedure is simple: Import a 3D file, select the surfaces to be ground, choose a grinding wheel and the direction of grinding. Form wheels are calculated automatically and the process simulation visualizes everything. The mentioned radius edge between oval and tapered surface, is just one click away.
These features are highly beneficial for any precision grinding application. Manufacturers in aerospace, automotive, medtech and tool and cutter grinding choose SCHNEEBERGER 5-axes grinding machines and CAD/CAM software Qg1.
