How much are proof parts
costing?
Set up parts
Scrap parts
Broken cutters
Wasted programmer time
Machine down time
Fixture problems

One example…machine time!
10 machines
Run 12 hours per day
$75 per hour for machine time
10% of time spent on proof parts
Potential savings at this shop is $234k a
year just in machine time!
Proof parts are costing this shop $234k a year just in machine time!

Reduce Set-up Time
“Why does it take a week to proof a part
that runs in one hour?”

Verify the NC part meets design
model specifications
Increase operator confidence
– Less babysitting your NC machine
– Less reason to turn down the feed rate
Increase throughput on your NC
machines
Replace existing inefficient
processes
– Single block, feed hold, prove outs, cut
air, etc.
Other Reasons to Simulate
Gouge
Excess
