Case Study: Aalbers Tool & Mold achieves zero crashes and 10x faster programming with Tebis

Aalbers Tool & Mold cuts programming time from 90 minutes to 8 with Tebis

For over 20 years, Aalbers Tool & Mold used the same CAM software, but faced increasing challenges as part complexity grew. Their programming environment created operational risk, with unreliable simulations leading to machine crashes and long calculation times that bottlenecked production. Seeking to improve reliability and throughput, Aalbers turned to the vendor Tebis for a solution involving its CAM software and related services.

By standardizing on Tebis, Aalbers implemented a true digital twin with exact machine kinematics and accurate collision checking. This solution delivered impressive results, including zero programming-related crashes and a dramatic reduction in programming calculation times from 90 minutes to just 8 minutes. The reliability enabled lights-out manufacturing, increasing capacity and allowing Aalbers to take on more complex, high-value work. Tebis provided the tools and support that transformed Aalbers' operations into a predictable and efficient process.
