Success Story

Aluminios de Baja California Expansion with Fusion 360

Aluminios de Baja California Expansion with Fusion 360

Customer challenge

Aluminios de Baja California SA de CV (ABC) is a growing aluminum profiling company in the northwest of México. Currently in the process of a long term expansion, ABC recognized the need to increase their design workforce and consequently increase their software license budget up to 30%. Through close collaboration with Grupo LAN, ABC sought to find an optimal solution for their business needs.

Project goals

Priority project goals identified with ABC were as follows: 1) Source new software to enhance their design and manufacturing speeds using innovative collaboration tools. 2) Introduce cloud storage and a free collaboration environment. 3) Identify areas within the current production management workflow where cost saving practices could be implemented without loss of operational efficiency. 4) Introduce tools which are more easily compatible with other complementary solutions.

Solution

Following initial consultations, Grupo LAN quickly set out to onboard and support ABC team with their migration to the cloud by introducing them to Autodesk Fusion 360 and its extensions. This provided a quicker workflow, a reduction in license cost, and more efficient production management capabilities. More and more, Fusion 360 users are slowly integrating into the team.

Business outcome

Having fully committed to Autodesk Fusion 360, Aluminos de Baja California has slowly but steadily increased its manufacturing team. More users are migrating to Fusion 360 and finding it easy for its gentle learning curve.

Conclusion

Grupo LAN has continually reinforced Aluminios de Baja California with attentive technical support and by constantly providing training to its users. As new users keep joining their team, Grupo LAN gains more insight into the Autodesk manufacturing tools' performance and can more easily identify new product placement opportunities.
