VISI gives flexibility for mould parts

An Italy-based hot runner and injector specialist for the mould and die industry is using a range of VISI CADCAM software solutions to optimise its workflow.

“We use it for feasibility studies before the production phase, and to formulate quotations for customers,” says Sergio Pozzan, founder and owner of Injection Point Srl. “Information is better organised, and errors minimised when moving from design to the machining phase, thanks to VISI’s interface.”
Being an integral part of its processes, VISI Modelling is used for design, VISI Flow to simulate plastic injection flow inside the mould, and VISI Machining to program complex cycles. The company, based in Turin, specialises in the construction of hot runners from 8 mm diameter up to 2300 mm centre-to-centre distances, injectors and filtering systems for thermoplastics.
The VISI Machining CAM module is used to program complex cycles for the company’s two CNC machining centres – a Mikron VCE1250 and a Bridgeport VMC 1000 XP2.
Operating with seven employees from an 800 sq m plant, Injection Point works with partners to extend its market to a large part of Europe, the US, Mexico, India and China. Exports currently comprise around 30% of total revenue.
“Despite the downturn that has hit our sector globally in recent years, with the help of VISI our products are always of the highest quality, meaning customers continue to have full confidence in us and we remain competitive with a good market share.”
