The market requires user-friendly software solutions for woodworking machines that can be used by all operators without the need for special IT skills.

Biesse meets these requirements by developing software solutions around our customers’ day-to-day operations, with user-firendly and intuitive interfaces. bSuite is a complete suite of advanced software tools, giving users access to cutting edge technology. If software is the only limitation to a machine’s capabilities, then bSuite offers endless possibilities.

High-tech becomes accessible and intuitive

Planning in just a few clicks, with endless possibilities.

Simulating machining operations to view the process prior to manufacture and maximise material and process efficiencies.

Virtual prototyping of the piece to avoid collisions and ensure optimal machine efficiency.

bSolid is a 3D cad cam software appli-cation that supports the performance of any machining operation thanks to vertical modules designed for specific manufacturing processes.

Planning in just a few clicks, with endless possibilitiesImporting or drawing any type of project (2D and 3D), from the easiest to the most complex, thanks to a unique design system.

The software allows users to draw and assemble several elements, thus pro-viding an overall view of the product.

Thanks to the integration of a new learning system, the software enables users to access sophisticated function-alities. The user only needs to set the dimensions and then - with a simple click - can visualise the product to be processed on a screen, together with all the operations needed to manufacture it.

Simulating machining operations to visualise the component prior to manufacturing

bSolid enables the user to verify the project through rapid and effective 3D simulation that supports: verification of the accuracy of the tool path; pre-empting programming errors (working depth, material approach, tool sequence, etc.); modifying and checking the project before machining.

8

Virtual prototyping of the component

bSolid enables the customer to view the machine in virtual reality, complete with its components, axis kinematics, magazine management and numeric

control. This enables the user to modi-fy any part of the machining process at any time.

Operations which previously could only be performed on the machine, can now be executed in virtual reality. tool magazine configuration; visual collision check; spindle tool equipment.

During the simulation phase, it is possible to calculate all machining operations in real-time.

Simulation provides total manufactur-ing control, enabling the user to verify the entire process and is fundamental in preventing tooling collisions.

Simplifying edgebanding programming

Sequential allocation of edgebanding operations.

Implementation of software basic knowledge depending on machining requirements.

Simplified management of edgebanding aggregates.

bEdge is a bSuite plug-in, seamlessly integrated for edgebanding planning. By utilising bSuite’s design and simulation ca-pabilities, bEdge makes edgebanding even the most complex shapes, very simple.

Sequential allocation of edgebanding operations.bEdge reduces design time as edgebanding planning can be achieved in just a few simple steps.

bEdge sequentially orders edgebanding operations (pre-edgebanding, edge-banding and post-edgebanding) to maximise efficiency and prevent any programming errors.

13

Simplified management of post-edge-banding aggregates. A key functionality of the software supports the manage-ment of various tools, classifying and configuring them in an very logical way.

The software contains a huge amount of information which results from Biesse’s long-standing experience in edgebanding operations. This is com-bined with the customer’s expertise to deliver high productivity and quality

expectations. bEdge automatically pro-cesses all the information to generate the final program required to manu-facture the component with complete simplicity.

Maximum design freedom

Creation of window/door frames even with extremely complex designs.

Ability to visualise all components and composition of the products to be manufactured.

Precise calculation of the timing of job lists generated by an entire order.

bWindows is a seamlessly integrated plug-in for the planning of windows/door frames. By exploiting bSuites planning functionality, bWindows provides unparalleled capabilities.

The software is equipped with basic information relating to operations to be performed with this type of process. All that’s required of the customer is to specify which tools are available, which bWindows processes to execute the project.

Creation of window/door frames even with extremely complex designsbWindows's potential is such that it supports the design of all types of window/door frames. It can manage extremely complex products in terms of number and types of components.

Substantial reduction in set-up time.

17

bWindows offers the possibility to ver-ify the specifications of the product to be manufactured. All components and characteristics (size, junctions, indi-vidual components, finishes) of a work piece can be checked even before it is simulated or processed.

bWindows enables the precise calcu-lation of door and window processing times, by virtue of its seamless integra-tion with bSuite and its innovative job list management: a uniquely reliable estimation tool that only Biesse can of-fer to its customers.

Management of printouts and glass list for the internal and/or external produc-tion of an order's complementary com-ponents.

Ability to visualise all components and composition of the products to be manufactured.

Precise calculation of the timing of job lists generated by an entire order.

Made With BiesseReduced cost and processing times, greater benefits and competitiveness.This is the results that Mcm, a company headquartered in Cantù - Italy's furniture hub - managed to achieve thanks to the new “bSolid” software by Biesse.

“Biesse has always been a reference point for us;” states Mirco Molteni “we have always worked extremely close-ly with them so that they could be very familiar with end user requirements, and be almost like another tool for us. Now we have become self-sufficient even for complex processes. We manufacture custom pieces and, thanks to bSolid's user-friendliness, we can turn them around within very short time lines. It is so convenient that we are gradual-ly moving more and more process-es - even simple ones - on the centre equipped with bSolid. We can complete a drawing's development process and move on to production within one hour, which is something we only used to be able to do in a day. bSolid is intuitive, parametric, more powerful and versatile,

particularly for surfaces. With bSolid all you need to do is set the dimensions, in a quick and easy way, follow the in-structions and then the work piece is visualised on the screen, together with all operations needed to process it. Once the drawing in the system, bSolid auto-matically programmes all necessary processing operations, down to specify-ing which tool to use. And if I have de-signed a complex piece and realise that I have made a mistake, I don't have to start again from scratch: all I need to do is insert the necessary changes and... job done! The new Biesse software goes through a verification stage and suggests a 3-D simulation, highlighting any problems, of any type, also thanks to the anti-collision system. In short, an operator can programme the compo-

nent to be manufactured in just a few, easy steps, verifying tool paths, iden-tifying the most suitable tool and see-ing how tool changes will be executed, through to the end result. At this point, he/she can start real production with no risks! Working together with Biesse to make sure that this software program takes into account the requirements and way of thinking of us furniture manu-facturers was a fantastic opportunity”, stresses Mr. Molteni. “I think they have managed to understand our needs and have created a tool that is very sophis-ticated and yet easy to use at the same time, that manages to put even the most conservative joiners at ease.….”.
