LASERTEC 65 3D - The complete CAD / CAM process chain Programming of laser deposition welding and milling in only one software package

As an absolute innovation in the field of Additive Manufacturing of complete 3D-parts up to Ø 500 mm SAUER LASERTEC has now introduced a universal, hybrid CAD / CAM solution for the programming of the additive laser build-up process as well as for the subtractive milling machining.

As an innovation in Additive Manufacturing of complete 3D-parts up to Ø 500 mm, SAUER LASERTEC has now introduced a universal, hybrid CAD / CAM solution for the programming of the additive laser build-up process, as well as for the subtractive milling process. Both combined in only one software package. Thereby all special laser machining strategies have been fully integrated in the existing CAD / CAM module. This allows the flexible production of complete 3D parts by laser deposition welding with intermediate milling operations.

Hybrid CAD/CAM for additive and subtractive programming

ULTRASONIC drilling and milling of turbine components made from Inconel, titanium and CMC

1) CAD/CAM data of the customer; seperation in additive and subtractive areas; slicing of the single workpiece sections 2) Generation of the NC-pathes for the laser process and milling in the post-processor; definition of the programmed sequence 3) 3D-simulation for collision protection with consideration of the integrated laser head 4) Laser Deposition Welding and Milling combined on the LASERTEC 65 3D (flexible changeover possible) 5) Finished workpiece ready for quality inspection
