Euklid CAD/CAM AG selects ModuleWorks Simulation technology:
|
ModuleWorks, a supplier of CAD/CAM components for 3-5-Axis toolpath generation and
simulation have confirmed their partnership with CAD/CAM Solution provider, Euklid
CAD/CAM AG to provide state-of-the art Simulation for the EUKLID product range.
EUKLID, from Switzerland, is a well known CAM system specialising in the design
and manufacture of mould tools and dies. It includes sophisticated CAM strategies
for machining including high speed cutting and 5-Axis simultaneous machining
In 2008, Euklid recognised the growing demand for Simulation technology from their
customers and decided this needed to be a part of the EUKLID product range. Customers
were pushing harder for right first time and looking to use simulation technology
to help optimise tool paths and eliminate programming errors and possible collisions
In looking for a solution, Euklid evaluated a number of providers and selected ModuleWorks
as the preferred simulation partner. The decision came down to a number of factors
including time to market, ease of implementation, technical support and the size
and manufacturing expertise of the ModuleWorks team
EUKLID simulation was released in 2009 and enthusiastically received by EUKLID customers.
Heribert Kaiser, Sales Director for Euklid comments “Our customers immediately
saw the added value provided by our simulation software. In many cases they reported
that they had improved the programming process and part quality and that their operators
were more confident working with the final NC program. We saw a positive impact
on sales and our customers were happy with the additional tools so this was a true
win-win situation”
David Plater, Technical Director comments “Simulation is an increasingly important
aspect of the manufacturing process with customers expectations of virtual prove
out increasing as graphics hardware and software has become ever more powerful.
Our technology is ideal for CAM vendors offering easy integration of high performance
simulation technology and we’re delighted to have Euklid as a partner.”
