Virtual machining systems simulate manufacturing processes digitally to increase accuracy and productivity while decreasing time and costs. This allows products to be tested virtually without physical prototyping. The process involves simulating machine tools and cutting conditions as inputs to validate operations before actual machining. Applications include optimizing cutting conditions, finite element analysis, virtual inspection, and training systems.

1. To increase accuracy as well as productivity in part production, manufacturing processes are simulated in digital environment by virtual machining systems.
This can provide useful means for products to be manufactured without the need of physical testing on the shop floor. As a result, the time and cost of part
production can be decreased.
Procedure of virtual machining systems and applications are presented in the below figure.
