Was ist der Unterschied zwischen hyperMILL Turning und hyperMILL Mehrkanal Drehfräsen?

hyperMILL Turning erzeugt Werkzeugwege. <strong>hyperMILL Mehrkanal‑Drehfräsen</strong> erweitert diese um Mehrkanal‑Logik, eine realitätsnahe Maschinenabbildung sowie eine vollständige NC‑Prozesssimulation. Der Fokus verschiebt sich dabei vom reinen Werkzeugweg hin zum gesamten Maschinenablauf.

Für welche Maschinen ist hyperMILL Mehrkanal Drehfräsen gedacht?

hyperMILL Mehrkanal‑Drehfräsen ist ausgelegt für komplexe CNC‑Drehmaschinen und Drehfräszentren mit Gegenspindeln, mehreren Revolvern, angetriebenen Werkzeugen sowie synchronisierten Kanälen.

Ist hyperMILL Mehrkanal Drehfräsen ein eigenständiges Produkt?

Nein. hyperMILL Mehrkanal‑Drehfräsen ist ein modulares Erweiterungspaket auf Basis von hyperMILL Turning / millTURN.

hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning & Turn-Milling

In modern turning, it is no longer the individual tool path that determines success or failure – but complete mastery of the machine process.

Complex CNC lathes with a counter-spindle, multiple turrets, and synchronized channels, in particular, quickly push traditional CAM workflows to their limits.
This is exactly where hyperMILL’s multi-channel turning and turn-milling capabilities come into play.

Highlights

Multichannel under control
Real machine instead of theory
Safety before the first chip
Productivity that pays off

With hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning and Milling, we are expanding the hyperMILL Turning Solutions to include a process-oriented multi-channel and NC simulation environment for complex turning and turning-milling centers. The solution is designed for users who need to accurately model their actual machine—including multiple channels, spindles, and turrets, as well as driven tools, tool changes, and synchronizations—within a single, integrated system.

More power

hyperMILL generates powerful turning and milling strategies. With hyperMILL multi-channel turning, these strategies go one step further: machine logic, channel control, and full NC code simulation merge into an integrated work environment.

The focus isn’t just on the toolpath—it’s on the entire process on the actual machine.
This creates a seamless workflow from programming to production. Programs are no longer simply created; instead, they are structured, synchronized, tested, and optimized as complete machine processes. This reduces risks, shortens ramp-up times, and prevents costly downtime.

Focus on the machine

hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning and Milling serves as the link between CAM programming and actual manufacturing. Based on hyperMILL Turning, the solution expands the system to include structured multi-channel logic, machine-specific models, and a complete NC code simulation for CNC turning.

The focus is on lathes and turning-milling centers with multiple spindles, turrets, and peripheral components. hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning does not represent these machines in a simplified manner, but rather realistically reflects their actual configuration—including kinematics, channels, hand-offs, synchronizations, and auxiliary functions.

Procedural Programming

With hyperMILL multi-channel turning, programming is no longer purely geometry-oriented but rather process-oriented. Channel dependencies, waiting positions, handoffs, non-cutting times, and safety movements become transparent, verifiable, and can be specifically optimized—all before the NC program even reaches the machine.

Clear result

Fewer setups, higher machine utilization, and stable, repeatable manufacturing processes: hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning provides a central platform for anyone who wants to control multitasking machines easily and efficiently.

The logical extension for complex lathes

Multi-channel support

Structured synchronization of multiple channels, spindles and turrets in a uniform, consistent environment.

Machine-oriented NC simulation

Validation of the real NC code on the basis of a digital machine twin – including complete machine peripherals.

Maximum process reliability

Collision avoidance, sequence check and logical verification of all movements before the first chip.

Measurable productivity gains

Shorter run-in times, fewer machine downtimes and reproducible, stable production processes.

Frequently asked questions!

What is the difference between hyperMILL Turning and hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning and Milling?

hyperMILL Turning generates toolpaths. hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning & Milling extends these with multi-channel logic, a realistic machine model, and a complete NC process simulation. This shifts the focus from the toolpath alone to the entire machining process.

For which machines is hyperMILL multi-channel turn-mill designed?

hyperMILL Multi-Channel Turning and Milling is designed for complex CNC lathes and turning-milling centers equipped with counter spindles, multiple tool turrets, driven tools, and synchronized channels.
