Mazatrol Off-Line Editor

MazaCAM also includes the Mazatrol Off-Line Editor. The Editor lets users write new, or edit existing Mazatrol programs. Because the Mazatrol Off-Line Editor is a Windows based application, it takes full advantage of the Windows features such as copy/paste and pop-up menus. Some features the Editor gives the user are additional to those on the Mazatrol control. Here is a brief overview of the Mazatrol Off-Line Editor:

  • Cut and paste between programs
    • individual lines
    • a Mazatrol process-unit
    • a shape
    • the entire program
  • Insert lines
    • like the Mazak
    • before the current line
    • after the current line
  • Plot the part shape, similar to 'shape check' on the Mazatrol control, except the Editor automatically highlights the geometry of the part you have placed your cursor at.
  • Pop-up menus prompt you through the programming process
  • Scroll bars help you navigate swiftly through your program
  • Mazatrol prompting helps you write your Mazatrol program by defining what data is needed for the field you are entering the value for
  • Backplot Mazatrol programs to a Geopath CAD file, at this point the program is converted as geometry in a CAD file with tooling information, then the CAD file can be output as G-code for other machine (a full MazaCAm package is required to do this)

Although these are only some of the features, the benefits are vitually endless. The purpose of the Mazatrol Off-line Editor is to significantly accelerate the programming process, so you spend less time programming parts and more time cutting them. For a complete spec sheet, please copntact us.
