What is Shopfloor Assistant?
Shopfloor Assistant is a modular, user-friendly application designed to simplify how operators and engineers interact with machining projects and NC programs on the shopfloor.
Whether you are adjusting a single point, validating a complex trajectory, or reviewing machine behavior, the application provides the tools needed for fast, safe, and reliable machining operations.
Key capabilities
-
Load and manage machining projects and NC programs – Easily open and manage machining projects. The application supports loading NC files and project scenarios, allowing you to quickly start reviewing, editing, and validating programs.
-
Edit and transform toolpaths directly – Modify NC code using the integrated editor, apply spatial transformations, and adjust toolpaths using intuitive editing tools.
-
Validate NC programs for safety and accuracy – Verify NC code for syntax errors, inconsistencies, and machine-specific constraints before execution.
-
Preview NC changes before applying them – Instantly visualize the geometric impact of NC parameter edits in the 3D viewer before committing the modification to the program.
-
Visualize operations in 3D – Analyze machining processes in a real-time 3D environment to better understand tool motion, geometry relationships, and potential issues.
-
Detect collisions and reachability issues – Use built-in simulation tools to identify potential collisions and verify that toolpaths are executable on the machine.
-
Improve workflow efficiency with smart automation – Built-in automation features help streamline repetitive tasks and reduce manual adjustments during NC program preparation.
