Case Study: SAY Plastics expands complex part manufacturing and improves quality with Mastercam

SAY Plastics - Customer Case Study

SAY Plastics, a thermoformed plastics manufacturer, faced the challenge of expanding its customer base by taking on more complex parts while also improving product quality. Their CNC routers had machine-size limitations that made manufacturing large, intricate components difficult. The company turned to the vendor, Mastercam, and its CAD/CAM software solution, specifically its Mill and Router products, to help overcome these obstacles.

With the Mastercam software, SAY Plastics could slice oversized models into machinable layers and utilize powerful geometry creation tools to work within their equipment's limits. Key benefits included the use of Dynamic Motion toolpaths to maximize machine capabilities and the software's compatibility to easily import and modify files from other programs. The solution enabled SAY Plastics to produce its own tooling in-house for substantial cost savings, manufacture more complex and accurate parts, and ultimately expand its customer base and improve product quality.
