NC manufacturing in the aerospace industry

You work hard to ensure the optimal use of your machining centers to manufacture parts for the aerospace industry. You need fast setups, minimal positioning times, reliable resource planning and capacity control as well as highly efficient NC programs.

It's good if you can rely on these workflows before the orders even sent to the machine. How does it work? 

Complete and true-to-life digital mapping of your manufacturing lets you check in advance what will happen later in the actual setting. Tebis CAD/CAM provides you with digital twins of your manufacturing resources – machines, tools, clamping devices etc. Even before the first toolpath is calculated, you can clamp the part virtually on the machine and select the correct clamping devices, cutting tools and machining directions.

With the Tebis ProLeiS MES system, you can use templates to define and plan all manufacturing steps. Automatic resource assignment enables you to optimally utilize your personnel and machines and meet your delivery deadlines.

You are responsible for manufacturing large, complex parts. You use a wide range of machining types and technologies to achieve the maximum material removal rate − even in materials that are difficult to machine.

It's good to know that you can rely on these points before the work planner and NC programmer even get started. What do you need in order to do this?

Plan, manage and calculate all manufacturing methods and all strategies in a single comprehensive system.

Many strategies proven in practice give you the best possible equipment for precision machining of aluminum, Inconel, titanium and other demanding materials. Use HPC, HFC and circle-segment cutters in 3-axis and 5-axis machining for especially efficient roughing, finishing and residual stock machining. Robust interfaces for platforms including Catia, NX and SolidWorks give you compatibility with all customers.
