More about JANUS post-processors
JANUS post-processors offer a wide variety of possibilities to best suit individual wishes, needs and workflows. Programming for single and multi-channel machines and robots for the manufacturing fields of milling, drilling, turning, grinding, welding, EDM, flame cutting and water jet cutting is possible for all common machine controllers. By consistently using the latest technologies, maximum added value is achieved, as the interfaces are perfectly adapted to the functionality of NX CAM.
As a strong technology platform and the basis for the post-processor, NX CAM allows interaction not only with machines but also with control, PDM and CRM systems and the associated automation.

Benefit from JANUS expertise
JANUS is a system development partner of Siemens and is well acquainted with the capabilities of the system. We combine extensive knowledge of NX CAM, an understanding of the capabilities of the machine tool and long-standing experience of manufacturing processes. We analyse your requirements and aim to seamlessly integrate the post-processor into your existing programming. The multinational focus of the JANUS development team and its close cooperation with key machine manufacturers guarantees the competent implementation of your individual requirements and high quality execution.
The maintenance for post-processors means that production processes can be continually optimised above and beyond system limits and the capabilities now available in NX CAM can be functionally adapted. A wealth of experience resulting from over 20 years of creating post-processors and using the latest development tools makes all the difference.
