CGTech, developer of VERICUT CNC machine simulation software, has celebrated 35 years of growth and innovation in CNC simulation and optimization in 2023.
CGTech was founded by Jon Prun in 1988, when he recognized the need to verify NC tool path programs without taking valuable machining time to prove-out a part. VERICUT was the first widely available method to test machine tool paths in a virtual environment. The software has grown to be the leader in the NC program verification space and has since expanded its original capabilities to include physics-based optimization with its Force module, composites programming and simulation, as well as additive and hybrid processes.
VERICUT is 100% developed in-house by software engineers and leaders experienced in manufacturing and the CAD/CAM space. Improvements are made with each release to support complex multi-axis kinematics, further reduce cycle times, increase tool life, and further optimize the simulation. New features are also continuously being developed, including live CNC machine monitoring features, tool performance optimization, and more.
Headquartered in Irvine, CA, CGTech has offices are located in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, China, Singapore, India, Brazil, and Korea to support customers located around the globe in virtually every manufacturing industry. CGTech hosts local VERICUT User Exchange (VUE) meetings annually across the globe to connect with customers to support their growth and needs.
CGTech is committed to strengthening its offers in verification and optimization, as well extending upstream to post-processing through the recent addition of ICAM Technologies Corporation to Sandvik, and downstream to connectivity using real-world machining data and performance.
CGTech is thankful for the continued support of its customers, from those who have just purchased the software to those who have been using VERICUT since its first version. The company will continue to build its value proposition for customers across the digital manufacturing workflow.
