HEDEMA is a modern order-producing company in the business of plate-machining and general metal processing, primarily as a provider for the industry. From the location in Horsens, the 94 employees handle all types of plate-machining, such as laser cutting, robotic welding, cutting, turret punching, plate rolling, edge bending, surface treatment, construction, installation, and facing.



HEDEMA makes production efficient with Autodesk Inventor solution

The company uses Autodesk Inventor for production drafting. Everything from the overall finished projects down to individual parts lists and components. HEDEMA uses CNC-controlled edge-folding machines and laser cutters with a precision down to 0.1 mm to ensure high quality, as DXF-files are generated in Autodesk Inventor. Here, a frictionless flow is important, so the machines don’t stand still. 

HEDEMA invests in new machines on an ongoing basis, so they can accommodate customer wishes that require lightning-fast turnarounds along with short delivery times and customer-specific requirements. It is therefore critical to the business that the software platform supports the high technicaldemands required for products in this industry.

Focus on the future

Future plans for HEDEMA include continuing their positive growth and the integration of Autodesk Vault and the company’s Inventor and ERP system with an eye to fewer errors in production, faster processes, reduced incidents of lost documentation, and faster response times.


Another benefit the company enjoys by using Autodesk is the fact that it is now considerable easier to attract labor. Autodesk is a known brand that is widely used in the industry, which has made it easier to send projects out to subcontractors.

”“Using Tick Tool along with Inventor is insanely time-saving”,
Joachim Damgaard Holst, construction and project manager, HEDEMA A/S

HEDEMA also uses Tick Tool for Autodesk Inventor. The software is an add-on, which has several time-saving features, which help the company with things like creating precise overviews of tasks, and easily creating DXF and PDF files for the production. The latest add-on Tick Tool Q is a tool for fast generation of offers with one clear overview, where the price is calculated based on cutting time, punching, plate pricing, weight, unit price per item or per order.

“Our future looks bright because we have the Autodesk Software package in place. I only expect that to develop further, says Joachim Damgaard Holst, construction and project manager, HEDEMA A/S.
