CappsNC NC-Fit Laser Example

Accurate drilling & trimming on a very large composite part

Part is very large and non-rigid, taking a long time to setup.

Leverage CAPPSNC & NCFIT with laser scanning and MPF Reposting

CappsNC Suite

Create a laser scanning measurement program
Scanning Program
Automatic program generation from a MPF program over the trimming path:

- - Automatic head angles selection
  - Full Program simulation
  - Data point generation for analysis
Part scanning measurement
Scan part trim lines
- - Convert scanning program into MPF
  - Execute MPF program on machine
  - Real time live feedback to load point cloud data
Point Cloud rendering
Render point clouds onto surface
- - Use CAPPSNC Rendering option
  - Convert point cloud into triangulated surfaces
Part shape analysis
Compare GCode data points to part shape
- - Use EXTRACT to analyze all G-Code data points to scan data
  - Visualize data for a better understanding
Re-post G-Code program
Repost newly generated program
- - Automatically convert original NC program by comparing each line with the part scan data
  - Create new NC program by applying changes for 5 axis parameters to match the program to actual part Shape & Location
