Virtual Machine seamlessly unites ICAM's advanced NC post-processing solution, CAM-POST, with a comprehensive graphical machine tool simulator, in one single integrated platform.
Virtual Machine enables NC programmers to graphically simulate and test programs, easily and automatically, against collisions during post-processing.
Virtual Machine allows NC programmers to avoid and correct possible programming errors that may have resulted in costly machine tool collisions and defective parts.  |

Control EmulatorTM (CE), is a software product allowing NC programmers to simulate and test NC programs using Machine Code Data (MCD) inside ICAM's Virtual Machine® and / or CATIA V5 / DELMIA.
As compared to traditional APT-based simulation systems, which simulate the programmer’s planned tool path, CE allows for a more meaningful simulation that represents how the machine tool will react to the MCD output that was generated from the post-processor.
CE is fully integrated with CAM-POST- ICAM’s leading edge NC post-processor developer.

Custom NC post-processors created by ICAM's senior NC manufacturing experts are developed to optimize the performance of CNC machines and to allow users to exploit the advanced functions of their respective machine tools.
ICAM's custom NC post-processors are created using CAM-POST® therefore, these posts inherently interface with all major CAD / CAM / PLM systems, controllers & CNC machines and support various advanced multi-axes machining applications.
ICAM post-processors are versatile programs that may be customized to reflect unique shop floor practices and manufacturing methodologies.

ICAM has been working with customers to provide efficient and innovative ways to simplify UHF set-up programs that have been developed to dynamically move actuators while avoiding collisions.
ICAM's integrated post-processing & machine simulation solution allows programmers to quickly program various types of UHF systems - what used to take hours or days can now be done in minutes depending on the machining complexity! |

ICAM’s SmartPATHTM is unique software designed to automatically optimize rapid positioning toolpath motions generated by CAD/CAM systems.
This software provides savings both in CNC run-time positioning and in CAD/CAM toolpath preparation.
Rapid positioning motions generated by CAD/CAM software do not take into account machine tool kinematics, workpiece setup and travel limitations and therefore, place the burden of responsibility for safe and efficient positioning onto the NC programmer. |

As a standard feature, CAM-POST includes a unique comprehensive "point and click" Wizard that allows even the most novice users to generate advanced NC post-processors quickly & effectively.
Also, the Wizard includes over 200 NC controller quick-start defaults that may be selected to simplify and speed post-processor creation.
The Wizard easily guides users through all the various steps involved when creating NC post-processors.
