Automation and continuous improvements using NX helped us build a reputation for delivering highest quality molds on time. That’s how we stay competitive and grow our business
Henry Kalkman, President , JK Machining
Our statistical results show that feature-based machining and PMI have improved the producing efficiency and quality of ASM by 70 percent, thus saving a lot of valuable time.
Hu Dewen, Senior CAD/CAM Manufacturing Manager, ASM Pacific Technology
Using NX CAM for feature-based machining helped us automate design and CNC programming work. Recognizing 95 percent of GROB standard bore types and 70 to 80 percent of other features, the automatic feature recognition has reduced CNC programming time by 30 percent and considerably reduced the number of different tools used.
