Case Study: Lorentz Group boosts machining efficiency and collision-free production with Hexagon NCSIMUL

Simulation at the Heart of Aerospace and Military Specialist’s Digital Chain

The Lorentz Group, an aerospace and military subcontractor, sought to enhance production quality and efficiency while avoiding costly errors on its complex 5-axis machining centers. To address this challenge, they partnered with vendor Hexagon to implement the NCSIMUL software suite.

Hexagon's NCSIMUL solution provided a digital thread with modules for machine simulation, tool preparation, and machine connectivity. This implementation detected programming errors, prevented collisions, and facilitated tool selection for operators. The results included significant time savings, more flexible machining operations, and a vital role in the Lorentz Group's overall success and digital journey.
