SOFTWARE FOR DRILLING TOOL DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING

The paper presents a software that allows the design and manufacturing of cutting tools for boring. The methodology contains several steps that can be taken only by using the software modules. The main stages are the geometrical and dimensional design of the cutting tool, the design and generation of the abrasive profiled disks, the management of abrasive disks and disk package, the generation of the manufacturing technology, the verification of the cutting tool using virtual simulation, testing the manufacturing process using virtual simulation, generating the CNC files and finally the transmission of the CNC files in real time to the CNC machine tool so that the tools can be manufactured.
