What's in it for You?

Increased Productivity

High Speed

High speed is a buzzword these days, but not all high-speeds are created equal.
NCPlus easily cuts complex contours at 400 ipm (10,000 mm/min) or faster because of:

• Block processing time of 25 microseconds (Pentium 300 MHz).
• 80 smart look-ahead buffers, give the control ample time to decelerate automatically before sharp corners or slower feedrate blocks.
• Jerk-factor makes any contour smoother.
• Feed override up to 200% functions even with high speed.

Nanometer Technology

All internal motion calculations are performed in 1 nanometer resolution (ultra-high-precision nano interpolation).

Huge programs

Version 5 supports program size of 3-4 million lines; version 6 is limited by disk size only.

Virtual W

For 3-axis machine, virtual W looks like a 4th axis. Using it moves Z of course.
This lets you raise or lower the tool manually the same as with actual W, and even while the machine cuts, by the handwheel (MPG).

Mid program start

A few simple steps let you Start from the Middle, and no access to the program is needed.
You can seek a line in the program or the current position of the tool.
You are in full control while NCPlus guides you thru the sequence; nothing is going to move by itself.

Rigid Tapping

Rigid tapping is available for machines with servo spindle.
NCPlus does rigid tapping by interpolating Z with the spindle. This is done digitally and doesn't require any periodic adjustment. The pitch is programmed rather than feed-RPM combination.

5-axis machining

With the optional TCP features (Tool Center Point) you get:

• TCP mode works in Auto as well as in Manual, with tool length compensation.
• Jogging and MPG both move in tool coordinates, so releasing a broken drill is not a problem.
• Pivot length and misalignments are compensated automatically.
• Feed is programmed in IPM or mm/min same as in a three-axis machine.
• Standard drilling canned cycles work for any tool orientation.  

Ball and Bull nose cutter radius comp

This compensation can be used with 3D contouring if your post-processor generates IJK vector in addition to XYZ.
It also works with 5-axis profiling.

Manual programming

If you do manual programming, NCPlus has a lot to offer:

• Powerful editor.
• Off line on a desktop or laptop.
• Standard G and M codes.
• Math mixed with NC data.
• Test in graphic mode.
• Built-in menu generator and data entry to create conversational programs.
• Extensive macro/scripting language, lets you exploit the computer's processing power and add your own touch.

Open architecture

• Hardware can be added or upgraded.
• All components are commercially available from multi-sources.
