Cadwork

Machine

Complementary to 3D, the Machine Control solution enables the preparation of 3D data for wood machining centres. In just a few clicks, your design is translated into machine data for rapid production in line with your project. In the world of wood, there are 3 main machine families: Bar, Panel and Assembly. And let’s not forget the possibility of exporting to CNC metal cutting machines: profiles and plates.

Whatever the machine to which the data will be transcribed, cadwork always works on the following principle: the designer designs his works with all the necessary cuts, contours, notches and drillings using the company’s know-how, and all cadwork’s recognition intelligence analyses and exports the geometries as data read by your machine.

Cadwork is compatible with all major manufacturers.

Machine solutions

Bar

This solution is designed for cutting machines that machine bars. Trusses, purlins, rafters and timber frames are machined from 3D drawings produced in the design office. You can export BVN, BVX, BTL, BTLx directly to your machine’s format.

Machine solutions

Panel

Whether you’re a fitter or a woodworker, you’ll be able to control your CNC. All the machines concerned are those that machine elements by contour to format the finished part and carry out the necessary machining: rabbets/grooves, drilling, half-timbering, etc., up to 5-axis contouring.

Machine solutions

Assembly

Your machine assembles timber frames: this solution will control all the most common framing machines on the market: Mach Diffusion, JJSmith, Hundegger WallMaster, Weinmann Wallteq. You can set nailing pitches, un-nailed zones and safety zones, take account of opening modules, and choose tools for sawing or drilling.

Machine solutions

Metal

Export your metal plates to a laser or plasma cutter directly as a DXF or DSTV file. You can also use machine recognition to export machining operations on metal profiles directly in .NC format.

Test before you buy

your machine

Before making the decision to purchase a cutting machine, cadwork offers you the opportunity to test the transfer free of charge for 2 months.

Test the cadwork machine export in real conditions to carry out your projects. We value transparency and mutual collaboration in complete confidence.

Cadwork associated with your cutting centre is the assurance of the most efficient and most advanced compatibility in the field of machine control.

Highlights

of your machine transfer

Only the geometry and shape parameters are converted into a control file by cadwork. It is the machine’s strategy alone that then decides on the most appropriate trajectory and tools for each job.

…converted into machine language using a high-performance shape recognition algorithm.

The operator can modify the recognition of a job at any time to adapt it to the company’s work habits if necessary.

Whatever the construction system you use: framework, prefabricated, traditional, half-timbered, plank, CLT, etc., but also adapted to panel work in the joinery sector.
