This project is to convert a proof-of-concept machining simulation software prototype developed at UBC into a demo-ready version for industrial applications. Machining simulation is a common but essential task in modern Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining operations. The purpose is to confirm whether the machining commands to be used by a CNC machine tool are created without errors and able to produce the desired part geometry correctly. Fast simulation execution is, thus, critical to the CNC machining industry as it accelerates the iterative machining process development cycle. Current commercial machining simulation software is either too inaccurate or too slow. The UBC invention is able to simulate all milling processes and compute the machined part geometry both accurately and efficiently. It outperforms the leading machining simulation software on the market with much improved simulation speed and comparable accuracy. This demonstrates the huge commercial potential and market opportunity for the UBC invention.

该项目是将UBC开发的概念验证加工模拟软件原型转换为工业应用的演示版。加工仿真是现代数控加工中的一项重要任务。其目的是确认CNC机床使用的加工命令是否正确创建，并能够正确生产所需的零件几何形状。因此，快速仿真执行对于CNC加工行业至关重要，因为它加速了迭代加工过程的开发周期。目前的商业加工仿真软件要么太不准确，要么太慢。UBC发明能够模拟所有的铣削过程，并准确有效地计算加工零件的几何形状。它优于市场上领先的加工仿真软件，仿真速度大大提高，精度相当。这证明了UBC发明的巨大商业潜力和市场机会。
