Turbosoft plus is a a specialized CAD/CAM system for airfoil components. From blade geometry optimization to toolpath generation, analysis and optimization, everything is covered in just one CAx software. With powerful features and a variety of tools, Turbosoft plus offers solutions for every challenge.
Process engineering circle
Over the past 20 years Turbosoft plus has evolved from a CAD/CAM software to a CAx system providing more than 500 airfoil machining centers worldwide with the g-technology tool path for continuous dynamic manufacturing of precision airfoils. Every step of the process engineering chain is covered in one dedicated software solution. Where most CAM systems stop at generating numerical control toolpaths, Turbosoft plus keeps on offering you solutions with modules such as kinematic analysis, dynamics and cutting forces, giving you control of the complete process.
- All-in-one solution
- State-of-the-art process engineering
- Updates and CAx support available
Blade builder and optimization
3D models of blades and airfoils usually consist of multiple elements which can lead to continuity problems. With tools like Blade builder and Blade optimization, a single face geometry with optimized continuity can be generated. This leads to toolpaths with optimized geometries with less axes reversals, a better surface quality and reduced machining time.
Milling strategies
With its rich set of milling strategies, Turbosoft plus offers dedicated solutions for all kinds of blades, blisks, integrally bladed rotors (IBR) and bladed rings. A set of optional parameters makes each strategy able to create your desired toolpath. Automatic communication between machine and Turbosoft plus allows an adaptive tool path generation without operator intervention.
Tap testing and stability analysis
Dynamics is a set of powerful tools to improve the overall milling process. The tap testing and stability analysis modules offer new possibilities to find optimal cutting parameters leading to increased efficiency as well as improved part quality in your machining process.
Cutting forces
Cutting forces is an integrated module for analyzing the cutting forces and optimizing the federate, resulting in higher productivity. The optimization increases the feedrate in areas with low forces and decreases the feedrate in areas with high forces. The resulting cutting forces are much more constant. This improves tool life, reduces costs and decreases the machining time.
Kinematic analysis
Issues with surface quality or accuracy are difficult to determine. With the kinematic analysis function, the traced toolpath on the machine can be analyzed directly on the geometry in Turbosoft plus. Axis reversals, abrupt orientation changes of the toolpath or mechanical problems of the machine are made visible and can be revised.
Chatter suppression
The data acquisition module offers data collection for process diagnosis. If chatter happens during machining, sound can be recorded with a microphone and analyzed. The module offers handy tools to calculate the tooth passing frequency and suggests new spindle speeds to eliminate the chatter.
