Cutting Tool

Third Wave Systems' analysis software is the ideal tool for companies that manufacture and design cutting tools for the metalworking industry.  Cutting tool companies must commit many resources to research and development in order to keep pace with manufacturer demands.  With the AdvantEdge software suite, these companies can reduce the time and money it takes to design, test, and deliver to market new cutting tools.  Below are some examples of cutting tool companies have used the AdvantEdge software suite to get to market faster:

  • Analyze the design of solid and indexable tools for optimal rake, relief, and helix angles; chip breaker geometries; and coatings
  • Create machining simulations to investigate tool force, temperature, stress, and deflection data
  • Import tool files in STEP, STL, VRML, DXF and NASTRAN format
