Confiança na fabricação aeroespacial

hyperMILL^® offers clear advantages in the aerospace industry. The system reads native CAD formats directly—without data loss and with the exact geometric quality of the original model. This preserves the basis for AS9100-compliant processes.
As a specialized CAM solution, hyperMILL^® focuses entirely on the needs of NC programmers: efficient strategies, transparent parameters, short programming times, and maximum process reliability.
hyperMILL^® offers a high degree of flexibility for supply chains with different CAD systems: models from a wide variety of sources are programmed uniformly and reliably—regardless of the OEM ecosystem.

The hyperMILL^® PLM Connector integrates CAM programming directly into existing PLM structures and creates a consistent, audit-proof data chain—ideal for aerospace requirements such as documentation, traceability, and AS9100 compliance.
NC programmers can access models, drawings, and revisions directly from hyperMILL^® without the need for paper or manual file storage.
Workflows also become more flexible: changes to the model are reported automatically, and adjustments can be made even during programming—a real advantage when schedules are tight.

hyperMILL^® supports AS9100 compliance with stable, traceable, and fully documented CAM processes. All strategies, parameters, and tool data are stored in an audit-proof manner and can be checked at any time—a key factor for traceability.
NC code simulation, collision control, and reliable tool paths ensure reproducible and tested NC programs. Controlled workflows and clear approval processes can be mapped using the PLM connector or connected systems such as Hummingbird MES.
hyperMILL^® integrates seamlessly into AS9100-compliant quality and documentation structures and supports safe, consistent manufacturing.

AS9100 does not prescribe a specific NC code simulation solution. However, the standard clearly requires that manufacturing processes be validated, documented, and controlled.
This is precisely where hyperMILL^® VIRTUAL Machining comes in: The simulation is based directly on the actual NC code and on a digital twin of the machine. This allows the entire manufacturing process to be verified precisely—from tool movements to axis limits.
This approach provides reliable evidence of process reliability as required by AS9100.
In addition, hyperMILL^® CONNECTED Machining enables a standard-compliant approval process for NC programs directly on the machine.

If ISO 9001 certification is already in place, the additional requirements of AS9100 are manageable. The standard is based directly on ISO 9001 and primarily supplements aspects such as risk management, traceability, configuration control, and clearly defined approval processes.
For companies, this means that existing structures are sufficient, but more precise evidence and stricter documentation requirements are being added. These requirements can be efficiently implemented with digital, audit-proof workflows—for example, via CAM, PLM connection, or NC code verification.
Our hyperMILL^® customers work successfully worldwide in AS9100-certified manufacturing environments and rely on stable, digitally supported CAM processes.
