Working Together to Design End-to-End Manufacturing Processes
The partnership between TOPSOLID and LANG Technik combines digital planning and programming with actual implementation on the machine. Both companies share the goal of taking a holistic view of manufacturing processes and supporting users with practical solutions for efficient and reliable production.
A concrete connection is established through the digital representation of the clamping setup: The 3D data for LANG clamping devices can be imported quickly and easily into TopSolid'Cam and then utilized throughout the programming process, right up to simulation. This allows the actual clamping setup to be taken into account as early as the digital manufacturing planning stage, enabling a realistic representation of the subsequent machining process.
Furthermore, the collaboration is characterized by close and personal communication. TOPSOLID is very familiar with LANG’s solutions and actively contributes this knowledge to the partnership. This fosters a practical collaboration in which digital manufacturing planning and real-world application are considered and further developed together.
Technical Synergies & Added Value for Your Manufacturing Operations
By importing 3D data from LANG clamping fixtures into TopSolid'Cam, the actual clamping setup can be incorporated into the digital manufacturing planning at an early stage. This allows important parameters for the subsequent machining to be taken into account as early as the programming and simulation phases.
- Plan for the clamping situation well in advance LANG clamping devices can be imported quickly and easily into TopSolid'Cam and incorporated into the programming process. This allows machining to be planned based on the actual clamping configuration.
- Realistic Simulation of Machining Processes The imported clamping device data can be used up through the simulation phase. This allows you to verify the interaction between the tool, workpiece, and clamping device even before actual machining begins.
At Soudronic AG, a fragmented system that relied on data transfer via USB flash drives and server folders made it difficult to track manufacturing programs. TopSolid'ShopFloor created a digital, transparent system: From tool and program management to inventory management, TopSolid provides a complete overview, including automated tool measurement with Zoller. Since then, confidence in tools and programs has increased significantly, and complex setups can be easily compared in the 3D model. Based on our successful collaboration and the significant improvements in our manufacturing processes, we highly recommend TopSolid Switzerland.

A few years ago, Mawatec AG received an urgent request from the medical technology industry: Within just 5 weeks, 15 different hip stem trials had to be produced—including material procurement, high-gloss polishing, laser marking, and 100% dimensional inspection on the 3D measuring machine. Thanks to the flexible TopSolid’CAM programming system, the first chips were produced before the end of the second day; reprogramming for the 14 additional molds went smoothly, and the order was completed well ahead of the deadline. Without TopSolid, we wouldn’t have been able to pull off this impressive feat!
