Success Story

Autodesk Fusion 360 Reduces Cycle Time by 15%

Autodesk Fusion 360 Reduces Cycle Time by 15%

Customer challenge

The jobs we undertake fall under the ‘difficult-to-machine’ category. Hence, we cannot make do with merely performing manual or bottom-level programming and instead opt for high-end CAD/CAM software. 

"Autodesk Fusion 360 has helped us with components that have complex geometry with curvilinear profiles. It can effectively tackle grooves, threading, knurling, undercuts, taper turning, and all types of threading. It also performs the collision free working. Fusion 360 enables edits to the tool path wherever necessary ensuring complete control for the user. The software also ensures that the tool follows the lead in and lead out commands and ensures smooth operation without any collisions,” Mr.Shivaji Malve explains.

Project goals

S.S.GRINDING only takes on special projects that encompass new product development—a quality that sets it apart in the manufacturing world. Mr.Shivaji Malve says, “I always wanted to be involved in research work based in fixturing, prototype manufacturing."

Solution

The Company, since its inception, has always been focused on the kind of job it takes on—a factor that has helped them stand out. 

"Autodesk Fusion 360 has helped S.S.GRINDING reduce its cycle time by 10-15%, which helped save overall machining hours," he says.

Business outcome

“We have extensively used FUSION 360 in all our CADCAM projects, especially in those involving roughing and finishing of complex turning profiles that require the support of CAM software for effective machining. In Turning, in particular for hard materials plunging and links are crucial to ensure tool life and cycle time. In finishing, the tool path has to be generated with the required tolerances and surface finish. Besides, the selection of even lead in and links has to be generated without damaging the previously finished surfaces. Number of settings also very easy. Fusion 360 has helped us accurately achieve all this.”

Conclusion

“Fusion 360 is the best CAM software I installed at my machine shop. It has met all my machining and design requirements so I do not feel the need to look for any other CAD/CAM software. It enables us to achieve a cycle time reduction by 10% to15% with good finishing and accuracy within required machining tolerance."

Autodesk PowerMill reduces cycle time by 15%

The company takes pride in undertaking unique jobs. Manufacturing R&D prototypes, molds for plastic injection, pressure die casting, and Electrode Manufacturing are some of the challenging projects it boasts of. “These jobs bring along their own set of challenges as they have one- of-its-kind designs and no template for bulk manufacturing,” Mr. Phani Kumar explains. “But, our manufacturing unit is fully equipped with the necessary design and machining facilities, including CNC machines, testing, Autodesk CAD software and Autodesk CAM software,” he quickly adds. “The components we machine are critical and challenging in terms of geometry, profile, work holding, material properties and with close tolerances. We rely on our machines, CAD/CAM software and skilled personnel to redress these challenges and meet our customers’ requirements,” he highlights.
