Distinct CNC programs

CNC programs specify the workpiece or complete furniture to be manufactured. In most cases, manufacturing sequences have to be defined, as well as the necessary tools and machining paths - individually for each CNC machine. In order to achieve variability on the machine, there are basically two different approaches: Either one uses a variable machine program, which should contain all possible options beforehand, or one creates a separate program for each workpiece. With a variable program, the whole manufacturing logic is created and managed in advance by the production department - usually in a machine-specific manner. As a result, it can happen that a part is not produced in the way the customer had requested it, because the customer's requirements are not addressed in the existing production logic.
This is why, in the case of customer-specific manufacturing, the approach of one CNC program per workpiece is the right choice, with all manufacturing information being derived directly from the virtual 3D model, at the required point in time. In doing so, the efficient use of the entire CNC machine park is guaranteed at all times by various optimization levels. In addition PASCAM Bea creates CNC programs that be read and changed - e.g. for the appplication at WOP systems - offering the manufacturing department comprehensive intervention options at any time in order to be able to use its practical skills in a targeted manner on site at the production line.
