    End to end with Tebis CAD and CAM – from the first scan to the finished model

    This collaborative project between Tebis and machine manufacturer Hermle made the hearts of all VW Bus fans beat a bit faster: The Baden VW Bus Team ordered a 1:5 model made of its beautiful black and red 1960 VW T1 Bus. 

    Design and reverse engineering

    • Digitalizing the Bus
    • Reducing data for maximum performance in reverse engineering
    • Reverse engineering of surfaces right on the reference model and optimizing interactively with just a few mouse clicks
    • Easily designing new surfaces
    • Starting CAM programming with high-quality data

    CAM programming

    • 3D roughing with automatic collision avoidance accounting for the machine head
    • 3Ds finishing with toroidal tools
    • Flexibly adapting extensive strategies for 5-axis simultaneous roughing and finishing
    • Optimized residual stock machining
    • Best surface quality thanks to outstanding starting surfaces and targeted point distribution

    5-axis milling

    Tebis 5-axis milling lets you tap into the full potential of your valuable high-performance machines: Collision-free programs can be easily planned and calculated for all multi-axis machining operations. Simultaneous 5-axis strategies that are customized for specific manufacturing tasks make NC programming simple – especially in conjunction with Tebis template technology.

    Using reverse engineering to align the CAD world with the real world

    Reverse engineering is used everywhere that work is performed manually on real objects and in the CAD model. In model manufacturing, design objects and vehicles modeled in clay are scanned and transferred to CAD surfaces. In die manufacturing, manual changes to sheet-metal dies in the tryout phase are scanned and the existing CAD model is updated based on the scanned data.
