The bar drawing module can be added to any AlumilCal® version to enable the user to export drawings with machinings into dxf/dwg format.
This module is ideal when fabricator wants to create detailed fabrication drawings due to documentation requirements (ISO, approvals etc).
Since the drawings are 1:1 with detailed CNC machinings on all phases, they can be transferred to the CNC handler who can manually import, into the CNC machine software.
The CNC module can be added to any AlumilCal® version to enable the user to transfer a CNC file to either CNC software or in some cases directly to the machine.
There is also a CNC with Cutting module-creating files for CNC machines with Cutting and CNC options.
AlumilCal® produces individual preps when certain actions such as drainage and assigning hardware are made when processing positions in AlumilCal®, which saves time to AlumilCal® users using the independent macros within the CNC machine. Users can use the standard preps created in the architectural system database, amend them for use or even create new preps themselves. All of these features are discussed in training when a user takes the CNC module.
AlumilCal® is programmed in such a way that it is very versatile to the make of a CNC machine within your business. You can see on our partner list, manufacturers such as Emmegi and Elumatec. We also link to Abakus, BJM, Camquix, Fom, Mecal, Rotox, Schucam as well as linking to software such as Unilink.
AlumilCal® is generally hosted on your network so setups can be made to generate CNC files and DXF data so your CNC software and machine can access them in your network.
AlumilCal® can view your machines CNC tool stock and automatically assign tools when you process a position and select hardware. This can be used to advise users of collision information or incorrect tools enabled in the machine that cannot perform the preps. Advisory information like this enables the user to control far more from within AlumilCal® so a fully ready CNC file is created.
Clamp orientations can be set up in AlumilCal® to work alongside the CNC tool file to advise the forced or suggested clamp orientations you require. AlumilCal® understands eight profile orientations; you control which is allowed and which you require as a default.
There are a host of other facilities within the CNC module to control needs such as preps rules, exceptions based on lengths, notch types, standard drill sizes and toggling preps on and off. Many more options are available, some directed by CNC machine type.
If you have any questions regarding the CNC module, please contact our office or email us using the contact details at the top of our website.
The WinISO 2D module can be also added to any Logikal installation. It enables user calculate a separate section’s Uf or a complete windows Uw, in case some of the data are missing from the database or in case of non U-value certified systems (cold systems).
Revit plugin is using BIM method as a solution for architects and manufacturers to find an efficient way to exchange data and information about a building. The architect exports the project made in Revit environment and sends it to the system producer, providing a project that already has all of the external positions and dimensions, the types of apertures and much information regarding the systems (series, glazes, thermal transmittance values, colours, etc., namely all of the information that the door and window system producer has put in the plug-in).With the Revit plugin, a door and window system producer can open this still incomplete project, read all of the information listed above, examine it and add to it all of the information necessary for the construction of all of the types. In this way, a finished AlumilCal project is obtained with all of the materials and a commercial offer that can be exported into Revit, where the architect can then use the 3D model and all of the corresponding information (costs, production time, etc.).
