Ever since the 80’s WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD has been proving its effectiveness for automotive applications time and time again.  WorkNC is used by virtually all the automotive companies who report significant reductions in costs and lead times. Many use WorkNC for shop floor programming. Sescoi's WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution has enabled customers in the automobile industry to control key business drivers more efficiently and transform their business. 

 

Aerospace and defense components demand quality of the very highest standard. Often using tough and expensive materials, errors in machining can be costly.  WorkNC’s Automatic CAM/CAD’s is renowned for its reliability, producing safe toolpaths with total collision avoidance.   Safety is also a key issue in this industry, so traceability of batches and materials is very important as well as a record of quality assurance activities.

 

 

The WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution enables contractors to achieve and maintain compliance with the rigorous demands of this industry.

Fast paced design and organic shapes figure strongly in the consumer electronics industry.  Product lifecycles are short, so time to market is of crucial importance. 

 

WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD’s many users in this industry have reported a significant reduction of lead times through the software’s reliability and fast calculation times. The WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution can ensure custom manufacturers deliver on time and to budget.

Engineering offices receive design data in many formats.  Successful import of the customers' data is just the first step….WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD includes powerful tools to patch surface gaps, analyze draft angles, create split lines and much more…Once the part or mold is ready for production, WorkNC can rapidly and automatically build toolpaths.  The WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution can help engineers to manage the process, keeping track of design iterations, hours worked, expenditure and the progress of production.

 

Many subcontracting companies in the general mechanical sector work across a diverse range of industries, so their products can vary hugely.  Optimizing the production process and maximising returns in such a wide-ranging environment presents a special challenge. WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD is the ideal tool in this environment, providing easy to use programming for 2 thru to 5-axis machining and wire erosion.The general mechanic arena is very competitive so costing needs to be keen and accurate. Sescoi’s WorkPLAN manufacturing management can help companies produce competitive quotations and optimize their business processes.

 

Complex shapes commonly feature in medical prostheses.  From CAD designs, WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD can extract and repair where necessary, a model suitable for manufacture.  Machining routines up to full 5-axis ensure that as much of the part as possible can be reached in one setting, speeding up production and maximizing the accuracy of the part.
The WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution can enable medical and dental companies to achieve and maintain compliance with the rigorous demands of this industry.

 

Sescoi's software solutions were originally developed for the mold, die and tooling industry.  Cutting complex shapes quickly in tough materials and interpreting and manipulating large CAD files are common requirements in this sector.  In WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD, machining operations can take many forms, but all are geared towards simple operation, fast and efficient machining, collision avoidance and high quality surface finish.  The WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution is tailored to suit the activities of mold; die and tooling manufacturing covering all aspects of the enterprise from quotation through to delivery.

 

Time to market for new products is important for success, and prototypes and models help to finalize the design.  WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD is a powerful tool for rapid prototyping  providing an alternative to additive methods of model creation by machining components and models directly, or by machining a mold where parts are required in low volume.  Keeping track of individual projects and ensuring they are completed on time and at a profit is demanding when delivery times for models and prototypes are measured in hours. One of the any advantages of the WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution is that it controls capacity planning, provides accurate quotations and monitors costs.

 

Fast moving, prestigious and cutting edge aptly describes the motorsport industry, and the products it uses fit with this image.  WorkNC provides companies supporting this sector with the ability to quickly respond to rapidly changing requirements and at the same time easily handle the most complex machining tasks.  5-axis machining of composites and models, high speed machining of hard materials, and cutting of deep cavities and intricate shapes are typical of these.  Sescoi's WorkPLAN management solution is geared towards custom manufacture and tracks the production process.  Historical information and real time reporting offers managers the tools to monitor key business drivers. 

 

By definition, special machinery is unique in its design and construction. For some applications, machinery may comprise hundreds or thousands of components making project management a complicated process. Sescoi’s WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution is design specifically for custom manufacture. Working directly from the CAD design, the software builds a tree structure of the components and controls purchasing, subcontracting and manufacture.  For machining of components, special purpose machinery manufacturers can improve their productivity with WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD where programming is a simple task using the 2, 3 and 5-axis machining routines in the software.

 

The manufacture of sport and leisure goods falls squarely into the fashion industry which is notoriously fickle and where short product lifecycles make rapid time to market essential. WorkNC Automatic CAM/CAD helps customers in this sector by simplifying the production of molds.  The software’s automatic machining cycles rapidly rough mold cavities, then finish machining operations pick out fine detail, minimizing the use of electrodes and significantly reducing cost and lead times. For an industry which is very time sensitive, the WorkPLAN manufacturing management solution which optimises business processes and helps ensure timely deliveries, is a very valuable benefit.
