Swa Gagelmans: KORPUS and AutoFIT connect CNC and beam saw
At Swa Gagelmans, an interior fit-out company in Wuustwezel, production planning is central to day-to-day manufacturing. Re-entering parts manually for different machines adds work and increases the risk of discrepancies between the drawing and the workshop.
Proven in practice
Real-world experience
This saves an enormous amount of time. It also lets you see very clearly what you are drawing.
The challenge
The company wanted to reuse technical design information for both CNC machining and panel optimisation. Operators needed to reprogram as little as possible, while the production planner retained visual control over what would be produced.
The chosen solution
KORPUS provides the basis for design, parts and CNC control. AutoFIT uses the part information to optimise cutting plans for the beam saw and allocate panel materials clearly across orders.
The combination ensures a logical division of tasks:
- KORPUS manages the technical structure and operations;
- AutoFIT calculates the cutting optimisation;
- the machines receive output tailored to the agreed workflow.
What changed in practice?
- Fewer machining operations need to be entered manually at the machine.
- The visual inspection remains linked to the technical design.
- The CNC machines and beam saw use consistent order information.
- Panel materials can be allocated to parts more efficiently.
