Case Study: ALPLA Group achieves stable, high-precision mold production with Cimatron CAD/CAM

ALPLA - Stable production processes thanks to quality measurements on the machine

The ALPLA Group, a manufacturer of high-quality packaging systems, faced the challenge of maintaining data consistency, process stability, and safety in its highly automated injection mold-making process. To achieve the high precision and repeatability required for its complex molds and caps, the company sought a robust CAD/CAM software solution and turned to the vendor Cimatron for its expertise.

Cimatron provided its CAD/CAM system to act as the data backbone for ALPLA's production. The solution enabled high levels of automation, facilitated seamless data exchange with various management systems, and introduced in-process quality measurement on a precision milling machine. This resulted in a more stable, reliable, and efficient process, with minimal deviations in measurements, reduced manual intervention, and enhanced overall production planning for ALPLA.
