Case Study: Sud Aéro boosts complex aerospace machining with TopSolid

Sud Aéro chooses TopSolid for its aerospace activity

The French aerospace subcontractor Sud Aéro needed a robust and reliable CAD/CAM solution to handle its growth and the production of complex, high-value parts for clients like Airbus. The company required a system capable of managing intricate five-axis machining and generating compliant machine code without operator adjustment. They evaluated solutions from vendors including Catia but ultimately selected TopSolid's integrated CAD/CAM solutions for their capabilities.

By implementing TopSolid'Cam and TopSolid'Design, the vendor provided Sud Aéro with an easy-to-use and highly adaptable solution. This allowed the company to program its machining centers effectively. The results over a ten-year partnership have been positive, enabling Sud Aéro to grow from 14 to 90 employees and make significant strategic investments in new machinery and a dedicated paint facility, consolidating its position in the aerospace sector. Sud Aéro also values the expert support provided by TopSolid's local team.
