Start-ups Optimate and ScaleNC spun off
Trumpf spins off its start-ups Optimate and ScaleNC. They will operate completely independently from Stuttgart.
Optimate is an online platform for the cost-effective production of sheet metal components. Customers can upload the CAD data of their components there. Artificial intelligence then recognizes whether and how the components can be improved. The start-up shows, for example, how production can be carried out using less material and where weld seams can be replaced by bends. The aim is to reduce manufacturing costs in sheet metal processing. Optimate also detects design errors, such as when a hole is too close to a bending edge.
The start-up ScaleNC takes over the programming of machine control systems for sheet metal fabricators via a cloud platform. CAD raw data, drawings or simple sketches can be uploaded there. The customer then selects which NC programs they require. ScaleNC prepares the data for production and creates suitable machine programs for laser, punching and bending machines. The start-up's offering is aimed in particular at small and medium-sized companies.
