The Best out of Steel
CENIT provided integration, postprocessors, the variant generator and macro development. All this helped organize our software and IT infrastructure even more efficiently, and it lets us use it more effectively. We have seen a major drop in the amount of manual reworking we need at the manufacturing end.
Challenge
- Integration of several 5-axis milling machines with different control systems as well as integration of an NC-based machine simulation in CATIA
- Complex and error-prone generation of CAD data for different variants and the associated parts lists
Solution
- Use of tried and tested standard postprocessors as a basis expansion to incorporate customer-specific requirements
- Step-by-step approach to immediately take new project knowledge and results into account for the benefit of current implementation and later project steps
Benefits
- Increased process reliability and fast productive usage of the solution
- Reduction of the error sources and time needed for the development and manufacture of product variation
Why CENIT
- Standard components for low follow-on costs, despite highly client-specific implementation
- Strong service orientation offered by CENIT from the development until the implementation for the solutions offered
- Core competence: Development and production of standard parts
- Industry: Manufacturer and supplier of standard parts for the tool- and mouldmaking
