Willis Custom Yachts: Manufacturing sea masterpieces with Siemens NX CAD/CAM [VIDEO]

Willis Custom Yachts, based in Stuart, Florida, crafts bespoke luxury sportfishing yachts, blending traditional artistry with advanced digital manufacturing. They specialize in high-performance vessels, maintaining tolerances as tight as 0.008 inches across highly curved surfaces. Faced with the unique challenge of producing one-of-a-kind vessels with sweeping curvatures and frequent customer-driven changes, Willis needed a unified CAD-to-CAM workflow. They found their answer in Siemens NX CAD/CAM software. By integrating design and manufacturing into a single, continuous digital environment, Willis Custom Yachts achieved a remarkable transformation.
