Flexible Licensing for Maximum Efficiency – NUMROTO X Packages

NUMROTO X offers a package-based licensing model that allows users to tailor functionality and investment costs to the specific application of a machine. This modular structure ensures a high degree of transparency and scalability.

The infrastructure package as a foundation
All licensing is based on an infrastructure package, which serves as the required foundation. It provides a single sequence for tool machining steps and supports wheel packages of up to three wheels. Depending on the complexity of the requirements, three levels are available:

• Basic infrastructure package: Ideal for simple manufacturing processes. It offers a fixed sequence for machining steps and allows wheel packages with up to three wheels to be configured. A production order consists of a workpiece program that can be manufactured in any quantity.
• Advanced infrastructure package: This package is designed for optimized manufacturing processes. It allows two sequences for specific applications and supports the management of up to 10 different workpiece programs per order. In addition, continuous corrective measurements and a universal profile editor are included.
• Professional infrastructure package: Designed for complex and high-performance processes, this level offers maximum flexibility. It supports any number of sequences, an unlimited number of workpiece programs per order, and a powerful formula editor for mathematical parameter dependencies. There are also no restrictions on the number of wheels per package.

Tool packages allow specialization
The tool packages build on the infrastructure package, providing the specific functionality required to create and perform operations on different tool types. Version 1.0 focuses on the milling cutter package, with additional tool types such as drills and indexable inserts to follow gradually.

Similar to the infrastructure packages, the milling cutter package is also divided into three levels:

• Basic end mill package: Enables the production of simple end mills with cylindrical or tapered bodies. It covers standard geometries such as ball noses or flat ends, as well as corner radii and chamfers.
• Advanced milling cutter package: Expands the scope to include more sophisticated end mills. Convex or concave circular segments in the tool body, as well as lens or circular-segment faces, can also be defined. Groove geometries and helix angles can be specified individually for each tooth.
• Professional milling cutter package: Offers a solution for highly complex end mills. The integration of a profile editor allows shell, corner, and face elements to be defined with complete flexibility, with the cutting edge always following the profile precisely. All geometry elements —such as face cutting edges, helix angles, or core dimensions — can be parameterized individually for each tooth.

Conclusion and Combination
A key advantage of the NUMROTO X model is its flexibility. Infrastructure and tool packages of different types can be combined to create a customized software environment. For example, a user can benefit from enhanced production capabilities with the Advanced infrastructure package while only needing the Basic milling cutter package for standard tools.
