VISI Electrode Design
VISI Module
What is Electrode Design?
VISI Electrode Design by HEXAGON is a dedicated solution for the automated creation, management, and manufacturing of EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) electrodes and their holders. Whether for simple or highly complex electrodes, VISI Electrode provides the tools to dramatically accelerate design cycles, guarantee accuracy, and support a seamless workflow from initial design through to production.
VISI Electrode Design
Key Features
- Dynamic Surface Extraction: Effortlessly extract the precise surface geometry needed for electrode creation, tackling even intricate cavity or core shapes.
- Linear and Tangential Surface Extension: Extend electrode surfaces intelligently in both linear and tangential directions to ensure proper spark gaps and shape coverage.
- Electrode Collision Checking: Simulate the electrode’s path and detect potential collisions throughout its stroke, minimizing costly errors before manufacturing.
- Comprehensive Holder Libraries: Access a wide range of standard and customizable electrode holders for quick, standards-compliant assembly.
- Holder Design and Editing: Rapidly design and adapt electrode holders, integrating them fully into simulation and manufacturing workflows.
- Vertical, Side, and Inclined Electrode Animation: Animate and visualize electrode movement in any direction, verifying safe operation and accessibility in even the most challenging configurations.
- Neutral Data Export: Generate standardized data files for downstream processes, ensuring compatibility with varied EDM machines.
- HTML and EPX Export: Create detailed, easily shareable documentation for electrode manufacturing or quality control purposes.
- Template Tool Paths Using VISI Machining: Leverage pre-configured tool paths to expedite electrode manufacturing, ensuring precise machining of even the most sophisticated forms.
Benefits
- Drastically Reduce Design Time: Automated surface extraction and collision checking minimize manual tasks and eliminate errors.
- Knowledge-Based Automation: Capture and re-use best practices, ensuring even less experienced designers produce reliable, consistent electrode projects.
- Seamless Data Flow: Effortlessly move from electrode design to machining with robust data export and manufacturing integration.
- Greater Manufacturing Confidence: Advanced simulation validates every electrode operation, boosting “right first time” results.
