Case Study: Grosso reduces shoe production time by 90% with Cimatron CAD/CAM software

Grosso Reduces Shoe Production time by 90% with Cimatron CAD/CAM software

Grosso, a designer and producer of shoe soles and molds for prominent sports shoe manufacturers in Italy, faced significant challenges in designing complex footwear molds. Traditional CAD/CAM systems were too time-consuming for tasks like individually positioning numerous bumps and handling frequent design changes, hindering their ability to compete on time and quality. To address these issues, they turned to the vendor Cimatron.

By implementing Cimatron's CAD/CAM solutions, specifically ShoeExpress, Grosso automated critical processes like calculating spatial coordinates and scaling different shoe sizes. This solution from Cimatron enabled simultaneous machine operation and delivered flawless designs. The results were a 90% reduction in delivery times and a significant enhancement in the quality of the molds' shapes and finishes.
