Solidworks / One CNC |
| |
After six months of studying
software packages to suit the companies needs
for integrated solutions, Toolrite installed
Solidworks 2008 onto two high-end workstation
class laptops. This provides fast, flexible and
more importantly mobile design solutions.
Once a component is designed, it's important the
information can be transferred quickly and
accurately for processing. As part of our
investigation we needed to provide a stable
platform for transferring our CAD drawings to
CAM/CNC software. In combining a number of
platforms of One CNC with Solidworks, we found
the ideal solution for accuracy, flexibility and
speed.
This blend of software allows our clients and
operators to view and manipulate images, leading
to an improved understanding of the more complex
items. Of particular advantage has been the
development of improved feed systems, and the
re-invention of multi-component assemblies.
It is now possible to almost replicate the
process prior to cutting one piece of material,
this has meant a significant reduction in
off-site and workshop development.
These enhancements to Toolrite's design and
manufacturing process will bring effective new
tooling and continuous improvement initiatives
to our clients quicker and with much of the risk
or error removed at the design stage.
Please contact us to see first hand the full
scope of our design capabilities.
