From a PLM perspective, we have built up significant expertise in the area of CAD/CAM. In doing so, we support the manufacturing industry to further improve their development processes and production preparation and thus increase productivity.
We simplify the complex.
CAD/CAM
Our extensive project experience, coupled with many years of PLM perspective, will help you achieve
CAD/CAM success.
Strategy & Consulting
We assist and advise you through every CAD/CAM step:
from the idea to the machine.
First, we derive a strategy. This enables us, together with you, to design the product complexity across all components and systems. In doing so, we not only simplify complexity, but also provide constructive advice. With our strategic approach, we pursue the goal of supporting overarching design, engineering, development and manufacturing tasks and ensuring the consistent use and availability of CAD/CAM systems throughout the entire product development and manufacturing process with connection to a central PLM system.
In addition, we jointly master increasing requirements for efficiency in teamwork and cooperation with partners and suppliers. Using CAD/CAM solutions in conjunction with PLM systems, you can manage your processes for development, planning and production in a consistent and coordinated manner throughout the entire value chain. We not only advise you on the development of a uniform data platform, we also design an integrated system landscape. Your path to continuous processes and information flows - from the idea to the machine.

CAD Design Methodology
The right method for every task area to simplify complexity.
Design needs method. Because even if you have all the tools on board, there is still no guarantee that your developers will use them in the best possible way. That's why we work together to develop design methods that are perfectly aligned with your business model.
This results in your individual, documented standards and processes. Development tools are used in the best possible way, collaboration and further processing of created designs are significantly improved. This facilitates their reuse, from which your engineering process benefits in every respect.
NX® CAD Optimization
Processes better, safer and easier.
Together, we identify your opportunities and potentials by taking stock of the current CAD/CAM and PLM landscape and the optimal integration into your business processes. We then assess and evaluate the situation in order to develop and optimize future-proof concepts for your digitalized innovation process.
Exploiting potential means making optimum use of specialist applications and enterprise systems. This also includes sharing knowledge across the company, living compliance and protecting the company's know-how. We optimize CAD collaboration and cooperation management. When it comes to data exchange, we work with you to optimize import and export in the areas of development and design.
NX® CAM NC Programming
We make your processes better, safer and easier.
Multifunction machine tools are of central importance for manufacturing companies. They bring enormous advantages, among other things because fewer machine types are required and setup and waiting times are reduced by complete machining on one machine. Likewise, the number of fixtures and clamping devices required is reduced. With new functions, NX® CAM helps to eliminate the high programming effort required when using these machines. And it simultaneously ensures shorter production times, which we have implemented in a large number of projects.
The solutions in the NX® CAM portfolio are fully integrated into the NX® digital development environment. Therefore, NC programmers not only have direct access to the respective current product data, they can also use the comprehensive design modules for manufacturing tasks if required. The technology integrated in NX® also enables flexible automation of frequently recurring processes. NX® CAM can be fully integrated into the PLM process chain by means of the Teamcenter® Manufacturing product data management system. Through our experience in project design, implementation and specific programming, we integrate and optimize along your process chain.
NX® CAM Digital Twin
The optimal combination of real and virtual world.
The digital twin as a virtual model of a physical object connects the real and the virtual world. In this context, the digital twin represents a real NC code simulation in which the real control in the NX® CAM software is mapped. Together with you, we manage to avoid machine or system failures. In the future, you will develop new products without expensive physical prototypes.
That is why we use digital twins in all phases of the product life cycle. We adapt customized postprocessors specifically to the manufacturing tasks, machines and control type, and especially to the established work methods. On the one hand, this allows the intelligence of the corresponding control, such as control cycles, path correction, program part repetition and free work planes, to be better utilized.
On the other hand, you receive a solution that is optimally tailored to your production. The appropriate NC code simulation, which is based on a digital 3D model of the machine and the clamping devices, can also be used with the constant aim of optimizing the manufacturing process.
CAx Integration
Connect, improve and simplify systems and processes.
Only if the various systems and processes from CAD to CAM to CAE are connected and integrated can efficient implementation succeed. Integrated systems and processes enable mechatronic product development with common data structures and continuous data flows right through to production. We integrate your applications and systems via optimized interfaces, close process gaps and standardize data flows across systems. This makes it possible to implement parallel processes in product development. The integration of development with production planning guarantees that your product can be manufactured as planned when production is released. Connected, improved and simplified.
NX® MBD
From drawing to paperless development, design, manufacturing and quality control.
In the areas mentioned, drawing-based processes are still primarily in use. Through our consulting and expertise, we show you how to use your 3D models instead of your drawing in the future and how to work model-based. Following the established ECS stage model, we have developed a procedure for the introduction of Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) up to Model Based Enterprise (MBE). You decide which level you would like to climb to. We support and accompany you through consulting and individual workshops to analyze your current processes, to identify potentials, to define future processes and to pursue them in a goal-oriented way.
Training & Support
Reducing complexity can be learned - with our trainings.
We have developed special training modules for all the CAD/CAM topic areas mentioned and beyond. For these training modules we offer tailored as well as comprehensive training content. In addition, our user support also provides long-term support after the projects or trainings in order to anchor CAD-CAM sustainably, efficiently and comprehensively in the company.
