Case Study: 17d Miniatures achieves faster, more precise model machining with Vero Software’s EDGECAM

17d Miniatures - Customer Case Study

17d Miniatures, a family-run maker of scaled working locomotive models, needed a faster, more precise way to program complex CNC parts and offer machining services for model-making customers and hobbyists. The company adopted Vero Software’s EDGECAM to replace slower, more manual programming methods and support its high-precision production needs.

Using Vero Software’s EDGECAM, 17d Miniatures improved machining speed and accuracy, moved some parts from castings to solid-block machining, and tripled feed rates with deeper cutter engagement. The software also helped the company produce working scale models, give more accurate costings, and expand into components for model cars, boats, lorries, and aircraft, making EDGECAM an integral part of its manufacturing process.
