Case Study: Allstrap cuts manufacturing lead times with Mastercam CAD/CAM software

Allstrap - Customer Case Study

Allstrap, a manufacturer of industrial strapping tools, faced the challenge of meeting increasing demand for its faster, battery-operated tools. They needed to machine parts from hard materials like stainless steel more quickly and without tool breakage or errors, especially when using their new high-speed 5-axis milling machine where the process was difficult to see. To address this, they turned to Mastercam CAD/CAM software.

By implementing Mastercam, Allstrap utilized its Dynamic Motion toolpaths and simulation features to run their machines at very high speeds safely. The software allowed them to verify toolpaths and detect potential collisions before machining, preventing costly errors and shutdowns. This solution significantly reduced production time, with the manufacturing time for a single part dropping from one hour to just 22 minutes, allowing them to meet customer demand efficiently.
