2D CAD and 2.5D CAM with FILOU NC

2D-CAD Modul

The FILOU-NC 2D CAD module offers many sophisticated CAD functions to make the creation of geometries as easy as possible.

Using DXF import, drawings from other CAD programs can be imported and checked with simple functions and prepared for milling.

Well thought-out layer management helps with drawings with many layers.

With the Text to Geometry feature, you can turn any TrueType font into geometry.

2,5D-CAM Modul

Designed for the daily work of the CNC specialist, many useful functions make it much easier to create the NC code.

The integrated manager clearly manages the processing steps in a tree structure. Processing parameters can also be easily edited afterwards.

The optimized multiple arrangement of NC code from a geometry is also easily possible.

The NC code is then recreated with just one click.

3D-Backplot

The calculated tool paths are shown here as 3D graphics.

One click on a toolpath and FILOU-NC immediately jumps to the corresponding position in the editor (and vice versa).

The finished program is interpreted, so NC code that was not created in FILOU-NC can also be edited in the backplot.

Analysis

Get a quick overview of the entire NC program.

Tools used, limits and runtime can be easily checked.

It is then also possible to create a report with additional individual information.

3D-Simulation

The removal simulation is the last step before completing the NC program. Here you can check whether the NC code corresponds to your requirements.

The NC code from the editor is simulated in 3D, so NC programs not created in FILOU-NC (max. 3 simultaneous axes) can also be simulated.

It’s very simple: analyze the NC code, define the stock material, start the simulation. Done

Postprocessors

Standard post processors are supplied for the most common CNC controls.

If none of the included post processors suit your controller, a post processor can be customized.

We create individual post-processors with machine-specific cycles on request.

RS232-Transfer

With the built-in RS232 / V24 interface, NC programs can be transferred from and to a machine with the appropriate interface.

Any number of machines can be created, which are then activated as required.
