Case Study - WLB Metaal
WLB Metaal, a sheetmetal subcontractor based in Valkenswaard, Netherlands, has driven their Muratec Wiedeman Vectrum 3000a turret punch press with its originally provided software for 8 years. As business increased a number of problems became significant. There was no form of automatic nesting and there had been no updates of the software for around 7 years. Furthermore the creation and amendment of parts was extremely labour intensive and prone to error.
In 2007 WLB decided to replace their CAD and CAM systems and, after researching the marketplace narrowed their selection to two systems, one of which was JETCAM.
