VISI Module
What is VISI PEPS-Wire?
VISI PEPS-Wire is HEXAGON’s specialized solution for programming, simulating, and optimizing all types of Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) operations. Designed for toolmakers, die & mould manufacturers, and precision engineering, VISI PEPS-Wire brings together reliable Wire EDM toolpaths, a vast postprocessor library, and intuitive feature recognition—ensuring proven, edit-free CNC code for virtually any wire EDM machine tool1.
VISI PEPS-Wire
Key Features
- Extensive CAD Interfaces: Work directly with major CAD formats including Parasolid, IGES, CATIA, Creo, UG-NX, STEP, SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge, Inventor, ACIS, DXF, DWG, JT, STL, and VDA. VISI handles wireframe, solid, surface, and mesh data—making it easy to machine from customer files or create from paper drawings.
- Automatic Feature Recognition: Quickly detect and extract through holes, open/closed pockets, tapers, and variable land or 4-axis features at the click of a button. Accelerates programming and groups features for efficient, repeatable machining.
- 2 & 4 Axis Machining: Intuitive control over machining direction, offsetting, lead ins/outs, tag distances, and technology for all types of geometry. Easily apply roughing, finishing, and tag removal cycles with clear, bitmap-aided parameter selection.
- Multiple Tagging & Removal Strategies: Automate and manage multiple start holes and tags for both attended and unattended machining. Choose the sequence—rough then finish, or rough/finish then tag removal—for optimum part quality and productivity.
- Automatic Cutting Strategies: Predefined cutting strategies automatically order rough, finish, and tag removal passes. Supports day cutting vs night (unattended) cycles and advanced 4-axis 'null span' and corner modes.
- Toolpath Verification & Simulation: Simulate the complete wire path with rendered 3D graphics—including fixtures, targets, and real-time collision detection. Visualizes slug removal and performs part comparison checks for accuracy and rest material.
- Comprehensive Postprocessor Database: Delivers edit-free, machine-specific G-code for leading brands (Agie, Charmilles, Brother, Fanuc, Hitachi, Makino, Ona, Sodick, Seibu, Mitsubishi, and more). Includes extensive technology data and supports JOB/Script, CMD, and custom output.
- Flexible Feature & Toolpath Editing: Modify extracted features, synchronize 4-axis tapers, edit machining strategies graphically, and apply user-defined operation constraints for optimal results.
- Advanced Automation: Utilize automatic start hole creation, secondary wire selection, incremental lead on points, automatic approach/retract, and M-Code insertion—all configurable for specific shop-floor needs.
Benefits
- Edit-Free G-code: Reliable, machine-optimized code delivered directly for all supported machines means less manual editing and setup time.
- Unattended Machining Ready: Multiple tag management, automatic lead-ins, and slugless pocketing empower lights-out, overnight production.
- Error-Free Manufacturing: Advanced simulation reveals collisions, incorrect paths, or removable part issues before sending jobs to the shop floor.
- Maximum Productivity: Automatic order sequencing, batch programming, and intuitive editing streamline workflow for single parts or complex dies.
- Easy Learning Curve: Graphical tools, bitmap-based parameter help, and real-time simulation make programming fast and accessible.
