January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
Siemens introduces Optimize MyProgramming / 3D Scanner software solution that will enhance shop floor-oriented CNC programming. This software combines 3D analysis technologies with programming on the CNC control in production. Optimize MyProgramming /3D Scanner is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio and enhances it with technologies for process optimization in manufacturing.
The solution has direct integration into Sinumerik Operate, which allows users to create and optimize programs on the control. Transferring geometric information from 3D CAD models into programs eliminates the need for manual input, according to Siemens.
The 3D Scanner offers suggestions for manufacturing strategies based on geometric features. This function allows better parameterization of machining cycles. This is intended to prevent programming errors.
The software’s pilot with machine manufacturer DMG MORI demonstrated that the 3D Scanner is a complement for optimizing manufacturing processes and can be integrated into existing systems. Optimize MyProgramming / 3D Scanner is integrated as a standard option in all DMG MORI machines equipped with Sinumerik One. The software will be available in fall of 2025.
Optimize MyProgramming / 3D Scanner is offered as a perpetual license for real machine tools and also as an option for their digital twin based on Run MyVirtual Machine. Experienced service providers offer support with consulting as well as implementation.
