Case Study: STDU increases turnover by 12.5% with Hexagon EDGECAM

EDGECAM wins business for STDU, increasing turnover by 12.5%

STDU, a French components manufacturer, faced the challenge of needing to program and machine complex, high-tolerance parts efficiently. They required a CAM system that could integrate with their diverse pool of CNC machinery to increase productivity and take on more sophisticated work. To address this, they implemented EDGECAM from Hexagon.

Hexagon's EDGECAM solution provided advanced toolpath generation and feature recognition, which automated and streamlined the programming process. This included strategies like Waveform turning and milling. The results were significant, with STDU reducing machining time by up to 30-40% on some parts and increasing their annual turnover by 12.5% by winning new, more complex contracts they previously could not handle.
