Productivity+ Of Renishaw is a complete tool for the control of processes of mechanised

New version for PC of the software of inspection for centres of mechanised

Productivity+ Is an exclusive solution of software for the integration of functions of measurement and control of processes in the programs of mechanised CNC of Renishaw. With some considerable advantages on the traditional methods, does unnecessary the manual programming of the cycles of inspection in code G, allowing choose the pieces ‘selecting and doing click' in the solid models mattered, in an interface that the users of CAM already know.

Although it is the most complete tool available for the control of processes of mechanised by means of measurement in machine, the new version 1.90 of Productivity+ expands still more the functions and the existent flexibility, including new functions for instructions built, better functions multieje, greater capacity of generation of reports and some functions of macro more personalised.

The functions of instructions built integrated in Productivity+, that allow to create virtual ‘pieces' from data of existent measurement, complement with the addition of a new element of line built. Combined, these instructions built (point, circle, plane and line), are adapted for operations of preparation of complex works.

Configurations of machine with union articulated to the table.

The functions multieje and the compatibility with specific commandos of machine, as Fanuc G68.2 and Siemens CYCLE800, has increased also in the version 1.90, that now includes compatibility of programming for the use of configurations of machine with union articulated to the table and of twist of cabezal of 5 axes regarding the table of the machine, in addition to the standard configurations of machines of 3 axes and multieje in table/table.

This high capacity of generation of reports of Productivity+, that incorporates details like the name and the type of the piece, and a comprobación of tolerance of entrance and optional exit, has been also optimised to generate reports in a uniform format for all the models of compatible control, simplifying the analysis and the comparative in the packages of external software.

For users that wish to create and add specific solutions to the routines of Productivity+, the version 1.90 expands the functions of the macros personalised, allowing use the results to realise operations of update of machine.

Generation of line built in solid model.

All these new functions increase the capacity of Productivity+, and allows to the users combine the inspection with the mechanised, so that the pieces can check automatically without need of an additional PC. A generator of logical instructions integrated allows to use the measurements like entrances in the decisions of the control of processes, by what is possible to define automatically the zero piece, the geometry of tools, the variables of machine and the updates of alineación of piece.
