MegaNC 2006 is the consequent solution for everyone who wants to use
his CAD data directly for the production. Powerful CAM functionality -
integrated into the common 2D- /3D construction environment -
guarantees a plus of operating comfort and performance.
The basis of MegaNC is the well-known, professional CAD system
MegaCAD. The modern CAD system makes available comprehensive
options for construction in 2D and 3D with easy operation. All functions
for the draft, construction or 3D modeling are made available to the user
in a practical way.
Powerful construction methods
Diversity of functions - the correct tool at any time
Of course, you can use the icon libraries with MegaNC or add your own
constructions or details as components to the libraries.
Groups in symbol manager
After the construction of the component or after importing data (2D: .prt,
dxf, .dwg; 3D: prt, .sat, .stl) the stock definition will be performed with
the CAD tools.
The CAD geometries are directly assigned to the milling strategies. This
is contours, pockets and holes as well as specific cycles in 2,5 D.
In 3D you can rough and finish axially parallel and oriented to angles.
Furthermore, there are strategies to machine surfaces and for Z-level
finishing. In order to prevent the tools from damages, you can provide
the milling toolpathes with plunge ramps and approach cycles.
Assign from milling technology to contours
Please consider the toolpath correction and the stock allowance for
roughing for any operation.
The user can create a library for his tools and call them off for the
corresponding milling task.
Definition of tools in the library
All defined operations will be shown in the Technology Manager. You also
have the option to change parameters later on or to resort the order of the
operations.

NC Drive
The universal 4 axis step motor control
The NCdrive is a PC based CNC control for step motors to output cycle and
direction signals for up to 4 axis with unlimited preview of the toolpath.
NCdrive represents a user interface for direct control of the machine
(DNC). When using the complete solution for CAD/CAM, MegaNC-NCdrive
the created NC code will be made available together with all parameters
and setting for the operation on the machine.
Intension
NCdrive consequently uses the high performance of most modern
hardware and of the Windows operating system. This way, a performance
had been realized which can compete with the high end CNC controls of
the upscale machine tools.
Just like those machines, the NCdrive NC codes (DIN 66025, others via
optional preprocessors), supports manifold further NC commands and
cycles and allows the operation of the machine in the setup and
automatic operation (fig. 1). In addition, the comprehensive functions for
direct milling of contours and pockets is available as an innovative
particularity - by simple entry of parameters, it is not required to create
NC codes for those functions (fig. 2).

Hardware
The NCdrive uses the PC processor for the user interface and for all
computation-intensive operations. The highly dynamic control of the NC
drive motors in real time is assumed by a special controller which is
being delivered together with the software.
The connection is performed via a serial interface or a USB adaptor.
This way also a milling machine with step motor can achieve the dynamic
and smoothness of a machine with servo drive.
Options
Due to the modular structure of the NCdrive software there are different
options for the operation of the existing machines available. It ranges
from comprehensive manual operation with integrated operation macros
and DIN code import and interpretation up to the complete
2D/3D-CAD/CAM Suite.
Due to the integration of potentially separated relay inputs and outputs,
it is also possible to switch additional equipment.
The manual control for the direct DNC operation of the machine is also
part of the CAD/CAM tool MegaNC which is being extended by another
powerful interface for direct machine control.

Configuration and settings
The NCdrive allows comprehensive configurations of the machine
functions. It concerns the definition of the presetting of parameters of
the machine and of optional add-on devices (vacuum cleaner, tool
changer, length measuring of tools, …).
Of course, the CNC machine is
factory-made operatively preconfigured. This way, the user has the
option to adapt and optimize or to add it to the "machining center".

Safety
Before the first chip is flying off, the milling operation can be controlled
in the graphic simulation NClyzer light. In this way, the user will get the
safety he needs to work in a relaxed way.
