Free trial available for Fanuc’s CNC virtualization platform

Fanuc America, a leading automation solutions provider, is offering a free trial version of CNC Guide – Fanuc’s PC-based virtualization platform for control design, training, and part programming. 

To assist machine tool operators and builders, Fanuc is offering this simulation tool at no cost. CNC Guide offers an immersive and safe way to learn how to operate CNCs, even for novice operators. Because the software creates digital twins of machine controls, programmers can test G-code programs with no risk of damaging actual machines.

CNC Guide can help optimize machining operations – users can experiment in the virtual environment with performance-enhancing features in Fanuc controls. In addition, software used in tandem with Fanuc’s conversational programming tool, Manual Guide i, can act as a simplified CAD/CAM package. This platform enables programming on a PC, so equipment stays in production to minimize downtime and maximize throughput.

Machine tool builders can also get a competitive edge by using CNC Guide to prove out design concepts faster and get equipment to market quicker.

This limited-time offer is good through September 2020 and available to Fanuc America customers residing in the United States.
