# CNC TestSuite

List simulation

The CNC TestSuite determines machining times and checks the operability of woodWOP® programs.

The CNC TestSuite enables rapid testing of large quantities of woodWOP programs in work preparation. In addition to determining the processing time, the runnability of the programs is also checked. This way, you know in advance how long an order will take on the CNC machine. This prevents unplanned waiting times and optimizes production and scheduling.

The CNC TestSuite calls existing woodMotion or woodTime installations. If errors occur, they will be displayed. The simulation of the list continues. In this case, the CNC core is automatically reset.

## The CNC TestSuite offers the following functions:

- Creation of production lists in work preparation
- List simulation for all connected machines incl. time determination
- Uses woodMotion, woodTime and collisionControl of the connected machines, if available
- Only for machines with PC87 control

## The advantages at a glance:

- Avoidance of machine downtimes due to faulty programs
- Determination of production time for better planning

  

Software from HOMAG for automated testing, simulation and runtime analysis of woodWOP programs. It supports production planning, detects program errors at an early stage and reduces machine downtimes.

**woodWOP** is HOMAG's graphical CNC programming software for woodworking machines. It enables easy creation, editing, and optimization of machining programs through an intuitive user interface, and supports both standard and parametric CNC programming for flexible manufacturing processes.

An order is a customer's request for one or more products. It combines all related information such as order items, quantities, dates, and other order-related data and serves as the basis for subsequent planning and manufacturing processes.

Simulation software from HOMAG for virtual testing and visualization of CNC machining programs, with collision control and realistic representation of the machining processes before production.

Time simulation software from HOMAG for determining, analyzing, and optimizing the running times of CNC machining programs for precise production planning and higher process reliability.

PC87 (PowerControl 87) is HOMAG's CNC control platform for modern machining centers. It forms the basis for machine operation, program management, simulation and production planning.
