Programming Interface suits CNC operating platforms

ByVision Control incorporates 15 in. touch-screen that facilitates user-navigation of screen selections for setup and operation. Operating with Windows XP[R], it guides operator through programming and manufacturing process; program data transmissions are transferred between ByVision control interface and CNC utilizing network communications. For complete process integration, Bysoft v6.6 offers synchronization of press brake, laser, and waterjet processes.

(Hauppauge, NY) Bystronic's revolutionary programming interface, ByVision Control, sets a new standard for easy-to-use CNC operating platforms. With a full 15-inch touch screen, users are able to quickly maneuver through screen selections for easy setup and operation. The operator is seamlessly guided through the programming and manufacturing process. The ByVision user interface operates within a modern Windows XP[R] for the highest level of speed and network compatibility. Program data transmissions are transferred between the ByVision control interface and the CNC at high speed utilizing network communications.

For complete process integration, Bysoft 6.6 software offers users advanced synchronization of press brake, laser and waterjet processes. Bybend, an integrated Bysoft software module, provides automatic bend deductions, bend reliefs, bending sequences and back gauge placements for press brake users. With a 3D-simulation feature, visualization of the bending sequences as well as automatic collision detection is performed before the part is sent to the operator for processing, reducing set-up time and the need for test bending.
