| | Cenon Features Cenon is a universal manufacturing software and accompanies it's users from the Design (or Import), via the Pre-Production process, to the control of the machine. Cenon drives machines with 2 2/2 and 3 axis. A 4th axis may be added with a tangential axis. The X or Y axis can be replaced by a circular axis. Cenon offers it's full potential to all machines that allow for Direct Numeric Control (DNC). The mayor platform of Cenon is Apple Mac OS X. Import - Import filters with automatic import format recognition for:
PostScript (PS and EPS), PDF, Adobe Illustrator 3, HPGL, DXF, Gerber - Import of raster images (TIFF, GIF, JPG, PNG, etc.)
- Automatic seperation of colors to layers
- Automatic joining of paths
- Import of text lists in ASCII format for mass production
Export - Export of DXF, HPGL, PostScript (PS und EPS), PDF, Extended Gerber, ...
- ...
Graphics and Editing - Lines, bezier curves, arcs, rectangles, Poly-Lines, etc.
- Complex paths with the ability to join, punch etc.
- Multi line text with rich text attributes (RTF)
- Use of Adobe Type 1 Fonts, True Type Fonts, and others
- Graphic inspectors
- Functions for alignment of graphic elements
- Multi level Undo and Redo
Power functions - Web functions
- Random mix functions
- Serial-numbers
- Rapid Prototyping of Printed Circuit Boards
- Placement of Drills and other elements on intersections of vectors
- Special functions for effective serial production
- ...
Pre-Production - Tool radius correction (inline, outline) guarantees exact results. You can choose between a vector and a raster algorithm. This way nothing should be impossible.
- Output generation directly from raster images without previous vektor to raster convesion.
- Standard- and Contourfill
- Output optimization
- Batch Production
- Camera+Targeting for automatic work-piece recognition
- automatic measuring of working pieces and transformation of output, can be used to correct imprecisions of print-outs in large-scale advertisements, etc.
- automatic recognition of position and rotation of working pieces
- Corner-Recognition of material like front panels
- Recognition of Position and Rotaion after flippig over of a working piece
- all features supported in batch production, too
- ...
Tool Management - Comfortable tool management using tool magazines
- Assigning of tools to layers
- Adjusting of tool parameters (feed, revolution, etc.) during output
- ...
Production - Interpolation of up to 3 axis, also circular axis
- 4. axis can be used for tangential tool
- configurable switching options
- Full interactive Control of machining from Cenon
- Milling, engraving, drilling, plotting, cutting, etc.
- Thread cutting, Sinkings
- Stepwise machining, Smoothing, ...
- Position memory for different starting points (e. g. for different fixing attachments)
- Output to machines of most manufacturers supporting DIN 66025 (G-Codes) and HPGL derivates (also plotters and cutting plotters)
- support of Tangential cutter on 4th axis
- support of circular axis as X or Y axis
- ...
