A Hexagon Case Study
Newmont Engineering, a specialist precision-gear manufacturer for the aerospace industry, faced the challenge of increasing requirements for part traceability and the rising administrative paperwork that accompanied it, which threatened to increase costs and reduce competitiveness. To address this, the company turned to vendor Hexagon for its JAVELIN production control system.
Hexagon implemented its JAVELIN system to provide full digital traceability and real-time shop floor data capture using barcode scanners, which drastically reduced administrative time. Integrated with Hexagon's ALPHACAM software, the solution provided accurate cycle times for quoting and a powerful scheduling function to manage complex production. The results included accurate job costing, the ability to be highly competitive in the global market, and complete control over the manufacturing process with key performance indicators.
