A TopSolid Case Study
Meusburger, a global supplier of high-precision standard parts for tool, mold, and machine production, faced a need for a paradigm shift in programming its custom manufacturing orders. The challenge was to increase productivity, flexibility, and counteract a shortage of skilled workers by finding a new CAM system. They selected TopSolid, supported by Evoltec, to handle all their 2D, 2.5D, 3D, turning, and wire EDM programming needs.
The solution from TopSolid and Evoltec included comprehensive implementation, training, and the development of a highly customized parametric post-processor for maximum process reliability. As a result, Meusburger achieved an efficiency increase of up to 30%, a significant improvement in quality, and near-elimination of component clarifications and rejects. The vendor TopSolid is now used to process approximately 8,500 special orders per year.
