A pipe cutting attachment for Nukon's REX fibre laser machines is being driven by Radan's specialist Radtube software module.
Radan, from Vero Software, already provided a CADCAM solution for standard REX machines, and worked closely with Nukon engineers to create an integrated package which drives the newly developed pipe cutting function.
Paul Monte, Radan's business development manager, says: "Having developed the functionality and post processor to drive this innovative solution on Nukon machines, it not only provides the CNC code, but also gives full simulation of the processes to eliminate errors on screen before any metal is cut."
