Shape Machining Ltd has just completed the introduction of the industry leading CNC machining verification software Vericut.Vericut software and training was supplied by CGTech. The software enables Shape’s 5-axis programmers and machine operators to verify their tool paths for clash and collision avoidance enabling them to be run safely with complete confidence.Managing Director, Peter McCool, said “Our experienced team of programmers have adapted quickly and incorporated the running of Vericut into our standard operating procedures.As a business we continue to grow strongly. Each time we grow we need to change, adapt and relentlessly improve.Introducing Vericut is part of our push to constantly improve.”NC programmes are now written and verified before jobs to be loaded on to each machine. This gives Shape the ability to extend significantly the available machining hours in a day and makes possible the planned introduction of a late and a night shift.Contact info@shape-group.com or quote@shape-group.com for more information.www.shape-group.comSHAPE Machining specialises in machining metallic tools, epoxy tooling block patterns, Rohacell foams and the trimming of carbon fibre parts for the automotive, motorsport and aerospace industry.SHAPE Engineering offers a full range of design, analysis and project management services to support composite part and tool manufacturing projects.SHAPE Composites supplies thermoset and thermoplastic composite preforms and parts ranging from bespoke autoclave cured carbon parts to larger volumes of hot press formed carbon parts.ShapeTex – Optimised carbon fibre preform design & manufacture(image of a pattern with NC cutter paths being programmed)
