Simplifies workflow by doing calculations in the background rather than having users kick this off. This saves time and the automatic display doesn’t allow for errors that are accidentally missed. Some of the tasks calculated automatically without needing to be initiated by users are:
- Collisions - these are recalculated automatically when machine configuration is changed
- Material removal rates - calculated when row is shown in timeline to display the MRR graph
- Tool balancing - Tool balancing is calculated automatically when tool balancing dialogue is shown
BENEFITS: Simplifies workflow, saves time, less likely to miss collisions and reduced waiting time
