VISI Modeling

For Tool Designers, Toolmakers and Precision Engineers VISI is a Hybrid Solid/ Surface/ Wireframe CAD system built on the Parasolids Kernel. Combined with native VISI Surfaces and other Visi Add-ons, Visi Modeller provides the ideal foundation for all your Tool Design and Toolmaking needs. Visi offers a range of Neutral translators and Direct interfaces with: CATIA, Unigraphics, & Pro/E.

VISI Electrode

Visi Electrode offers three methods of defining the region for creation of Electrodes. Then through a series of prompts the  Electrode is generated with Extension and Stock interactively defined. Collision checking is automatic and once defined the Electrode can be saved and exported in it's own WCS, (Work Co-ordinate System).

VISI Mould

VISI-Mould enables the design of tools for parts created natively or imported via the extensive range of Data translators. A simple question & answer process, together with libraries of mould components from leading suppliers, guides you through the design sequence. The resulting mould assembly is completely solid and using the associated drafting module users create their 2D drawings virtually Automatically. Complex sections and views are simply created. Dimensions, Balloons, part lists and tolerances are all part of the standard system.

VISI Progress

Similar to Visi Mould in it's power and functionality, Visi Progress delivers Progression Press Tools from the CAD model of a finished Stamped and Press Formed Part. The user interacts with the system to define the number of stages, and their functions. Punches are then predicted by the system. The Progression Tool being developed through user interaction at each phase.

VISI Machining 2D

Integrated 2D Design and Machining provides the necessary design and machining tools for 2D milling, pocketing with islands, profiling and complex machining cycles for all drilling strategies on  wireframe geometry. This integrated wireframe modeller (VISI-Design) secures the easiest way of defining the part to be machined, as well as providing multiple import and export possibilities between various cad systems.

VISI Machining 3D

VISI-Machining 3D is a high level CNC programming system providing toolpath calculations and simulation directly on an integrated solid and surface modelling base. The package offers multiple gouge free machining strategies which cover the full range of geometric conditions required by complex parts.

VISI Wire

VISI-Wire offers a substantially easier method of programming wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining). VISI-Wire's cutting strategies can cut 2D and 3D profiles, allowing straight cut, constant taper angle cut, destruction (pocket 2D) and 4 axis cutting. Apart from the pocketing, all other strategies can be applied on closed or open profiles - either comlete or partial cutting.

VISI Split

Select the Solid or Surface model to be split, and automatically check for undercut and sliding core areas. A Rendered display and Slide bar provide live feedback of the component being split. Plus VISI-Split automatically manages the layer & color of Core, cavity, & parting line geometry.
