The virtual machine from INDEX

The copy of your INDEX machine


Your benefits

  • 3D model from the design with all INDEX tool carriers, spindles 
  • Simulation of machining
  • Collision monitoring
  • Reduced setup time through easy troubleshooting on the PC
  • Genuine Siemens 840D control with complete operating panel
  • Identical behavior of the virtual and the real machine
  • Optimized cycle times 

Everything in view.

Reduced changeover time

Errors in the NC program are no longer searched for on the real machine. Production-parallel simulation possible.

Avoiding the risk of collision

Collisions are detected in the simulation and can be prevented already at the programming stage.

Optimization of part programs

Reduced non-productive times, allowing you to enter production using an already optimized and proven program.

For use in teachning and training

Employees can familiarize themselves safely with the programming. This can serve as assistance in a restart.

“If you know the real machine, you also know the Virtual Machine."
