Case Study: Société Collet Amblard opens new markets with Hexagon WorkNC

Société Collet Amblard - Customer Case Study

Société Collet Amblard, a French manufacturer of precision machine components for the nuclear and hydraulic sectors, faced a challenge as its previous CAM system could no longer meet customer requirements or machine its complex parts. Hexagon, through its WorkNC CAM software, provided a solution to overcome these machining limitations and help the company access new markets.

The implementation of Hexagon's WorkNC software streamlined the programming and machining process for 3-axis and 3+2 axis jobs, granting greater reactivity and independence. This resulted in a massive reduction of 3D programming times by a factor of four, cutting the time for a job from a full morning down to just half an hour, while ensuring the reliable production of perfect components regardless of geometric complexity.
