Case Study: Société Nouvelle Caulonque achieves fully automated high-precision mould production with Hexagon WorkNC

Automation, innovation and high precision machining: a mould-maker relies on WorkNC

Société Nouvelle Caulonque, a high-volume mould-maker for the French food processing industry, needed to increase precision and automate its production process to meet stringent client quality demands and take on new projects. The company turned to Hexagon's WorkNC CAD/CAM software to address these challenges.

By implementing Hexagon's solution, Société Nouvelle Caulonque automated its workshop, drastically reducing programming times from two weeks to under half a day. The use of WorkNC's 3D tool compensation and other features significantly raised quality levels, ensuring part weight variations stayed within the critical 0.1g limit and eliminating scrapped parts. This automation and precision, provided by Hexagon, freed up considerable time, allowing the company to accept new projects and even get weeks ahead of schedule.
