Expedite 3D Features and Functions

Optimally Designed Menus
3-D/Windows features the convenience of icons and pull down menus, logically designed for quick selections and reduced programming time.

Geometry Creation and Display
EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows has all the required features to easily create new geometry or build upon existing geometry. In addition, multiple independent views can be presented on the screen at the same time, all individually sizable.

Graphical User Interface that:

  • Simplifies part programming by graphically expressing the desired method of machining to allow the user to concentrate on machining techniques, not arithmetic or geometry construction.
  • Reduces programming time and cost due to improved programming throughput, error reduction, and simplified training.
  • Increases a programmer's productivity through its straight-forward design which includes a multiple independent view feature. This feature allows the user to create as may view windows as desired, and all simultaneously active on the screen at the same time.
  • Provides users of EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows with support for more than traditional milling and turning applications. EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows can also be used to program most 4- and 5-axis wire EDM machines, including Agietron, Elox, Japax, and Mitsubishi.
  • Fully utilizes the power of Microsoft's Windows environment for easy of use, compatibility with other Windows applications, and complete online documentation. Also included is a full tutorial that provides modular lessons for each aspect of the product's capabilities. Both the online documentation and the tutorial include sketches for clarity.

Standard Machining Operations
With the click of a mouse, EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows generates tool paths for all Turning and Milling operations.

IntelliPost Postprocessor Generator
EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows works seamlessly with IntelliPost, the world's premier PostProcessing system. This gives you the capability to configure postprocessors for 2- through 5-axis machines such as lathes, mills, machining centers, flame, plasma, laser cutters, wire EDM, hybrid machines and grinders.

Machining Modules
To further simplify the task of programming EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows includes numerous machining macros. Stock removal, grooving, threading, undercut finishing, pocketing, etc. are a few of the time saving, built-in features.

Online Help
When assistance is needed, EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows offers help based on a hypertext application. This unique context-sensitive Help feature includes a complete Tutorial as part of the EXPEDITE 3-D/Windows package.
