Case Study: Van Dam Custom Boats speeds custom metal machining with Mastercam

Van Dam Custom Boats - Customer Case Study

Van Dam Custom Boats, a manufacturer of custom wooden boats, faced the challenge of designing and machining a wide variety of unique, durable, and aesthetically pleasing metal fixtures for their vessels with only minimal, outdated equipment. To expand their capabilities beyond woodworking, they needed a modern CAD/CAM solution.

By implementing Mastercam, the company gained an intuitive and adaptable software solution. Mastercam's Dynamic Motion technology and OptiRough toolpaths allowed for faster, safer material removal, while Model Prep features streamlined the part design process. This resulted in significantly reduced machining times, more efficient roughing to save valuable hand-finishing time, and a dramatic overall expansion of their in-house manufacturing capabilities, solidifying their reputation for quality and innovation.
