Case Study: Eminox Ltd achieves £80,000 material savings with Vero Software's Radan nesting solution

Eminox Ltd - Customer Case Study

Eminox Ltd, a UK manufacturer of vehicle environmental control systems (CRT, SCRT, FBC) for OEMs like Caterpillar and Volvo, faced a nesting and material-usage challenge in its make-to-order, just-in-time laser cutting operations. With over 8,000 active laser parts and highly variable daily part mixes, the standard machine software left large offcuts and inefficiencies that increased material costs and risked production delays for high‑precision parts.

Eminox switched to Radan CAD/CAM, integrating it with Catia and their ERP/Kanban workflow and using Radan’s Project Nesting, remnants management and VBA automation to generate optimized nests quickly. The result was dramatically improved material utilisation—saving £80,000 in material in the first year—eliminating laser-stage inspection, reducing offcuts, and streamlining production through automated nesting and NC program generation.
