Success Story
Founded in 2012 as a small company with a big vision, Raamtel Solutions was established in New Delhi, India to gain presence in the Indian Electronics market. A dedicated team of brilliant marketing and technical professionals came together with a strong business focus: wide range of RF, Advance Microwave Components, and RF Accessories. Raamtel Solutions follows a proactive, futuristic and process-driven approach to business generation that anticipates customer's needs. Raamtel Solutions understands the multiple levels of marketing required to promote any concept or product in India. They faced a challenge to meet production targets due to long machining time demands and a lack of seamless integration between CAD and CAM processes.
Raamtel Solutions had three main requirements for the right CAM solution: 1) Seamless integration with 3D Models with easy editing enabled for any 3D Model created with the software. 2) Ability to generate any type of NC Program using the best Toolpath Strategies available. 3) Built-in Post Processors to generate Trusted NC Codes and to speed up the work.
Considering the competitive market, Raamtel Solutions started to get the parts which were difficult to program on the machine, especially the milling and turning, and which were already modelled in 3D. Then, Raamtel Solutions started to look for a suitable CAM Solution. Raamtel Solutions decided to invest in Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill implemented by Greenleaf IT Consulting, which would integrate easily with any Machine and would also be able to program the milling machines. Autodesk software being available in a subscription model also optimized the Raamtel IT investment. Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill has PowerMill and Fusion 360 solutions fully integrated which allows Raamtel Solutions to do Quick Edit on any 3D file format and generate the Toolpath for NC Programs. It’s also very easy to edit the toolpath in PowerMill. Other CAM software required a separate costly Post Processor solution.
"Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill has produced some incredible results on plastic moulds, and machining times are half of what we expected. Programming in Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill is also easier to learn, and it really helps that other team members learn fast and do the programming in absence of the Manager." - Raamtel Solutions Excellent results: 1) 70% total time savings proved on old and new Machines being used. 2) Before, the entire cutting process took one hour and five minutes using other software. Now, with Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill deployed, the same process takes only 30 Minutes. This was an overall time savings of over 50%.
The increase in CAM programming capability provides several key benefits to Raamtel Solutions. The efficient CAM programming workflow helps reduce programming time. The program for the part described took considerably less time to create and validate than it would have taken with the software used in the past. The automated strategies provided in Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill reduced cycle time which in turn helps reduce the cost of machining. The ability to visually simulate machining operations and accurate post-processors provided with Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill have eliminated problems such as crashes when running programs for the first time. Mr. D K Shrivastav, DGM at Raamtel Solutions, concluded that the use of Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill has also contributed to the company’s productivity with a two times increase in efficiency since the company started using the software.

Reducing machine cycle time by using Powermill
Karan Motors was incorporated in 1989 and have been focused to manufacture of cylinder heads and engine blocks for over four decades. Providing the best range of Bedford Cylinder Head, BMC Cylinder Head, Caterpillar 3300 Cylinder Head, Caterpillar 3406 Cylinder Head and Caterpillar 3408-3412 Cylinder Head with effective & timely delivery in the Competitive market. Karan Motors also undertakes development of new components by reverse engineering with latest techniques of white light scanning and digitizing. Dimensional data in the form of point clouds and co-ordinates is subject to advanced high-end three-dimensional surfacing and solid modeling software. The result is a net perfect model of the component which forms basis for extraction of tooling for foundry and machine shop. Stocks for tooling are machined on CNC machines for optimum accuracy and then inspected for assembly and trials. Considering all scenarios from Design to Manufacturing, facing problems in editing the surfaces
Implementation of Fusion 360 with Machining Extension
Toshi Enterprises is a die / mold manufacturers and injection molding focus company and is working for various OEM for plastic parts / component manufacturing. Having a small design studio, they were exploring a cost-effective solution for 3D Modelling and Doing FEA Stress Analysis before sending the 3D model to Manufacturing (CAM). Weekly client coordination also slowed down their design process and a seamless data exchange between 3D CAD Model with the CAM is also what they were looking for.
