Shop Floor Programmer provides a critical link between design and manufacturing, ensuring smoother workflows, reduced errors, cost savings and improved time to market. Benefits include:

• Manufacturability. Ensure that your original design intent is realized in production by enabling product designers to fully validate the manufacturability of proposed designs.
• Reduced lead times by streamlining entire workflows and enabling teams to quickly pivot based on design changes or customer requirements.
• Real-time insights. Fine-tuned toolpaths based on real-time insights, enabling custom adjustments for increasing efficiency, reducing cycle times, optimizing material usage and improving tool longevity.
• Scalability. Standardized processes can be easily replicated across different manufacturing lines, enabling companies to expand production without sacrificing quality or consistency.

Discover how engineers at Highland Vans are using industry-standard nesting capabilities in DELMIA Shop Floor Programmer to quickly check how well their design fits on a sheet or multiple sheets, saving them hours of manual nesting they were required to do with their previous tool, Fusion 360. They can also use the tool to do “what if” scenarios to determine the best design that can be made with the least amount of wasted material to help increase profits, lower product costs and improve manufacturing sustainability within their organization.

Many small- to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) in manufacturing are negatively impacted by disrupted supply chains, shrinking tech talent pools and increased reshoring. This makes it tough to meet production demands, let alone adopt the new technology that can help. Discover how knowledge capture through CNC programming can help you reduce errors, improve machinists’ productivity and leverage the best practices of your CNC experts.
