NC Costs?

keith
Could someone provide a link to information about the NC module?

We're looking at some new Haas machines and wondering if the probes could be programmed with PC/DMIS (something I know a little about) and sent to the machine for execution. Does the NC module convert the Apt-like pc/dmis language to g-code format?

How much does the module cost? What software is comparable to it?

thanks,
Keith

  • You should check with a sales person. But...

    It was around 5K per Machine tool that you were going to run it on.
    Plus around 5K to add it to a seat of PCDMIS
    But to get the benefit, you should buy an additional seat of PCDMIS instead of loading on top of your already busy CMM. I think that you post the data downstream and evaluate it on the seat of PCDMIS.

    To me the only reason to do this would be if you have parts that you need to check but dont want to break the setup yet. Maybe some intermediate checks(not final checks)
