Cutting tool base
You are looking to master your digital tool base for industrialization and physical tools in the workshop, control their supply and their preparation and thus increase your productivity, your profitability and your sustainability.
Cutting tool library
Production resources and tools library
The best performing high-end CNC job shops in the world have found the key to efficiency: At the core of this lies the machine tool library. The engineering tool database is the source for complete transparency, foreseeable production resource allocation, and reliable and efficient machine tool preparation.
The CNC Tools Library is included in the WinTool Base Package and can be extended with interfaces for CAM and Presetting Gauges. WinTool can directly import tool manufacturer Catalogs according to industry standards.
BENEFITS
- Lean planning, programming and machine setups with huge time savings!
- Elimination of assumptions, gaps, and errors between planners, programmers and operators.
- Structured, automated and retraceable data flow in production.
HIGHLIGHTED FEATURES
- Most comprehensive, truly parametric tool library with graphics generators and fast tool manufacturer data input.
- Create detailed tool setup instructions in seconds with current storage location and availability.
- Open architecture database (SQL Server) with interfaces for ERP, PDM, MES, CAM, DNC, Presetting Gauges, and Storage Systems.
CNC FILE MANAGER
Standardize your machine preparation and data processing
The CNC File Manager adds another table to the Base Package to organize all documents created for a machine operation in a convenient location. Unlike a Windows Explorer environment, WinTool controls the data processing among planners, programmers, tool room workers and machine operators in a regulated, smart process that eliminates defects
BENEFITS
- Regulated engineering data workflow per machine
- 100% transparency of production files & resources
- Retraceable CNC data processing
HIGHLIGHTED FEATURES
- Drag & drop file archiving
- Document history and compare editor
- NC data release & revision control
- NC operation data can be remotely controlled by PLM, MES or CAM system.
CNC PROCESS MANAGER
Work order related tool & data processing
The Process Manager is an exclusive development of WinTool that manages CNC files, production resources & tools during the execution of a work order. It calculates tool load/unload lists for machines, checks item availability, sends setup data to presetting gauges and NC files to machines and so forth. The workflow can be highly automated and customized. This will make your shop tick like a Swiss clock!
BENEFITS
- Minimized tool and machine setup work
- Elimination of holdups and meanders
- Fully automated PRT localization and availability check
HIGHTLIGHTED FEATURES
- Load/unload calculation
- Setup data distribution to point of usage (presetting)
- CNC files distribution and backup
CNC INVENTORY MANAGER
Link NC Programs, tool lists, and tool availability for full transparency!
WinTool’s inventory management capabilities provide control over your production resources & tools inventory as well as orders. This provides the tool room staff with full transparency over items used in NC operations and in different locations. This way, production planners can anticipate supply bottlenecks. WinTool Tool Inventory Software has been designed to optimize tool selection and storage layout, and control bookings via barcode readers, tool dispensers, and lift systems.
BENEFITS
- Secured supply
- Minimal search and setup time
- Elimination of obsolete tools and overstock
HIGHTLIGHTED FEATURES
- Automated reorders and ERP system interface
- Complete usage & waste control (barcodes)
- Interfaces with 3rd party storage systems
- Multiple storage clients for different works or sites
