Quickstep cnc program

The decision to select CrossTrack was made in May based on both affordability and current and future functionality. Due to the Covid outbreak, it was decided that both installation and training had to be performed remotely. Once proven, the software was installed and tested remotely the following month, with sample NC code immediately proven.

The first test nest was produced within two hours of the first remote installation connection and further training provided online. Martin Bailey, general manager of JETCAM International, commented: "The pandemic forced us to think about this implementation in an entirely new way, which will become a blueprint for future installations. The implementation was fast because CrossTrack is a standard off-the-shelf solution.

Two Breton precision milling machines for precision trimming, countersinking and drilling. These PMMs are fully programmable using the 3D models received from our customers. They operate in a climate-controlled enclosure. These extremely accurate milling machines trim the part and drill a large number of holes.

The operation is undertaken with the part held under vacuum on a fixture. Two coordinate measuring machines for measuring the precise geometry of completed composite parts. This is done on every single part and will measure a large number of points to ensure a perfect fit directly on the aircraft, when delivered out of Quickstep. Robot cell for automatically drilling and riveting composite assemblies. Trimming and surface contour inspection systems are also utilised to provide significant improvements in manufacturing efficiency and quality.

An array of mobile holding fixtures that bring the parts to the robot cell enable the robot system to be fully integrated with the other components of the manufacturing process. An array of fully certified spray and bake booths provide the capabilities to comply with a large range of aerospace paint and finishing requirements. These are supported by a highly experienced team of aerospace qualified painters to provide high quality, fully compliant finishes to all our products.

Final assembly of complex composite components and assemblies. The limit is 84, each operating completely asynchronously, as though a separate controller were executing each program. This modular approach to development helps clarify your programs and simplifies debugging and maintenance. Your automation controller — Powerful, Tailored, Supported. Each step has: 1 an intuitive name 2 space for comments 3 any outputs that change during that step and 4 the code instructions for that step.

The resulting program is easy to understand, easy for others to understand, and easy to debug or expand. Rapidly moving your project from an idea to a highly integrated, world-class control system is the goal of Quickstep for Windows.
