Productivity+™

PC-based probing software solution for machining centres, enabling sophisticated process control and adaptive machining.

For successful and controlled manufacturing, Productivity+™ and probing should be used for:

• Tool setting - Speed-up tool change and avoid damaged tools
• Part set-up and inspection - Auto-correct machining cycles
• On-machine verification - Reduce production time
• In-office programming - Reduce machine down-time
• In-office simulation - Increase confidence
• No direct PC connection - Machine controller auto-updates
• Immediate feedback - Spot checks
• Process Tracking - by adding Renishaw CNC Reporter

About Productivity+™

Productivity+™ allows you to easily add probing routines into cutting programs with closed loop process control for lights out machining.

Productivity+™ is a new simplified approach to producing Renishaw probing routines for machine tools. Running on Windows based platforms, the programs simplify the creation and insertion of probing routines into the manufacturing process.

Productivity+™ uses a graphical user interface (GUI) to provide an extremely user-friendly programming environment. Simply pick features from a CAD model, or choose parameters from dialogue boxes, to define the program. When it is complete, select the required post processor and the output is automatically generated, ready for loading directly into the machine.

For even more peace-of-mind, the probing cycle can be run as a simulation on the PC, picking up on any errors before it reaches the machine tool.

 

 

Productivity+™ options

Productivity+TM Active Editor Pro		Productivity+TM GibbsCAM®
Design probing cycles direct from the CAD model using solid model feature selection. Renishaw's Active Editor Pro is the all-in-one solution for producing probing cycles remotely from the machine, via a CAD interface.		For GibbsCAM® users. The Productivity+TM GibbsCAM® plug-in merges the creation of probing cycles with the creation of metal cutting tool paths, within the Virtual Gibbs package.
