VPSS 4ie

Sheet Metal Engineering System

The sheet metal engineering system “VPSS 4ie” developed by AMADA is a factory reform solution that promotes smart factories in customer factories.

 

By digitising the processing know-how in all processes while tracing back the manufacturing process from completed forms of products, the system will bring the effect of speed-up of on-site work, repelling defective assembly, and eliminating the need for complex skills.

FEATURES - VPSS 4ie

Reduce development /programming time

  • VPSS 4ie can utilise this data to easily create a development diagram. Compared to conventional development drawings, which are created one by one while looking at paper drawings, manufacturing time can be reduced.

Reduce processing defects & rework at the manufacturing site

  • Reduce manufacturing costs and lead times!
  • Since it is possible to review processing without mistakes while going back through the processes of welding/assembly → bending → punching/cutting, it is possible to manufacture sheet metal with a reduced workload between each process by eliminating rework due to development and processing defects. increase.

Digitisation of know-how unique to sheet metal processing

  • Reduce the work load at the site and realise work without delay!
  • By incorporating know-how specific to sheet metal processing into a 3D model, the burden of on-site work can be reduced, making it possible to shorten the time and improve efficiency of on-site work.

Bending feasibility verification

  • Before unfolding, you can first verify whether each part bends and check whether there is any interference between the tool and the work, tooling, or non-sheet metal parts.
  • By doing this, it is possible to prevent problems such as things that do not bend when processed on site.
  • If processing is possible, the data can be saved as a program for bending as it is.
  • *When used with VPSS 4ie BEND

AI drawing support function

  • It reads the dimensions and three-view drawings listed in the drawing PDF or scanned image, and automatically creates construction auxiliary lines that reflect the dimensions. Just by tracing the drawing along the auxiliary lines, you can easily extract and create surfaces, reducing the time required to create developed drawings. In addition, AI is used to recognise and extract dimensions.
  • *VPSS 4ie 2D-CAD cannot be bundled with our 2D CAD "AP100".

Program Creation Function For Each CAM

VPSS 4ie Production Designer

  • Create a development drawing using your CAD data. 2D data can be converted into 3D data, and 3D data can be imported as is, allowing you to check for interference and modify the model while the parts are assembled. Problems can be identified before creating a development drawing, reducing machining defects on site.

VPSS 4ie BLANK

  • Automatically create processing programs for punch, laser, and composite blank machines and nesting data with high yield. The customer's processed products/parts are automatically placed on the sheet metal material so that there is less wasted material. At the same time as automatic placement, machining trajectories are automatically assigned to products/parts. This reduces material waste and creates machining programs that allow immediate blank machining. It is also possible to automatically allocate TK assist molds and ARFT-BCLS molds, which are Amada's unique sheet metal processing technologies.

VPSS 4ie BEND

  • You can automatically create bending programs for multiple parts and verify whether each part can be bent. Automatically determines bending order, mold layout, butting position, etc. You can check the machining process using realistic drawing simulations, including molded parts and fasteners.
  • When creating new bending data, the "AiBEND" function refers to bending data for similar products created by the customer in the past, and creates an optimal bend that reflects the customer's accumulated bending skills. It is possible to create data.

VPSS 4ie ARBEND

  • Create a machining program for the bending robot. Equipped with a "Programming Assist" function that automatically calculates robot movements, bending orders, molds used, etc., greatly improving usability. Easy-to-understand and easy-to-understand operations, even for beginners, reduces the time required to create bending programs.
  • *To use ARBEND, a bending CAM is required.

VPSS 4ie WELD

  • Create a processing program for a fiber laser welding robot. The teaching work for welding robots, which previously required stopping the processing machine, has been significantly reduced, and welding robot programs can now be created in the office. Therefore, by calling up the welding robot program at the processing site, setting up and correcting processing jigs, etc., processing can be started immediately.

VPSS 4ie TUBE

  • We create processing programs for the rotary indexing device and chuck indexing device that come with the laser machine. Automatic nesting of pipes and steel materials greatly reduces the lead time for complicated pipe and steel processing, and improves yield.
