In designing the new HG350-G, the aim was to offer customers much more than a new generation machine for one-off and batch-grinding of precision spur and helical gears.
Reduce both time to market and the costs of the new HG350-G Gear Grinding machine through design
Digital Twin for machine engineering, development & faster commissioning
SINUMERIK ONE – the digital native CNC, Create MyVirtual Machine / Operate, Create MyVirtual Machine / 3D and Create MyVirtual Machine / SIMIT Connector allowed PTG Holroyd Precision Ltd. to save resources by doing all testing, verification and development in a virtual environment remotely.
Run MyVirtual Machine allowed the end users of PTG Holroyd Precision Ltd. to validate the toolpath and to ensure that it has an accurate representation of the cycle time.
Having the digital twin based solutions enabled us to do a lot of work offline, it saved a lot of commissioning time.
