A Hexagon Case Study
Modulo Tre, an Italian manufacturer and early adopter of 5-axis machining, faced challenges with its previous CAD/CAM software. The lack of integration between design and manufacturing made complex modifications time-consuming and difficult, especially for the intricate 5-axis work required for their projects in the energy, automotive, and aerospace sectors. This led them to seek a new solution from Hexagon, specifically the VISI integrated CAD/CAM system.
By implementing Hexagon's VISI software, Modulo Tre gained a fully integrated solution that streamlined its processes. The software's automatic error healing, feature recognition, and reliable Eureka kinematics simulator prevented collisions and enabled efficient, unattended machining. This resulted in drastically reduced programming times, the ability to successfully machine complex parts like turbine impellers, and the elimination of costly errors, allowing them to operate their machines around the clock with confidence.
