Case Study: RayBar Machine Company boosts machining capability with Hexagon EDGECAM

RayBar Machine Company uses EDGECAM workflow, surface-milling capabilities and specialized cycles to produce complex parts

RayBar Machine Company, a custom precision shop specializing in prototypes and tooling fixtures, faced the challenge of remaining competitive with a small team while handling highly complex, one-off parts for demanding industries. To digitize and modernize its operations, the company implemented the EDGECAM computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) solution from vendor Hexagon.

Hexagon's EDGECAM solution provided advanced workflow organization, solid model import capabilities, and specialized high-speed machining cycles like Waveform roughing. This resulted in significantly increased machining capability, improved efficiency, and enhanced part quality for RayBar. The implementation led to a greater ability to attract new business, saved substantial cycle time, and eliminated the need for hand polishing on many parts, directly improving their competitiveness.
