Delcam to Preview PowerSHAPE 2010 at CADCAM
Matters in UK
BIRMINGHAM,
UK, Oct 14, 2009 - Delcam will give UK designers their first chance to see
the forthcoming release of its PowerSHAPE CAD software at the
CADCAM Matters event being
organized by Machinery magazine at Donington Park on 18th November. The 2010
version has seen its solid modeling abilities reinforced through the
incorporation of the Parasolid kernel alongside PowerSHAPE’s
well-established surface modeling operations. The combination of the two
technologies will offer significant benefits both to designers that
undertake conceptual design with PowerSHAPE and to toolmakers that use the
software for data translation and tooling design.

Delcam’s PowerSHAPE is
ideal for plastic products that combine
curvy exteriors with geometric internal features
Delcam has been developing its surface modeling technology for more than
30 years. This long history has given PowerSHAPE unrivalled ability to
design and edit the most complex shapes. The addition of the Parasolid
kernel will give equal strength in the development of history-based
geometric models.
The combination of the two technologies is especially important for
designers of plastic products and housings. These frequently need surface
modeling to create an attractive external shape but require solid modeling
to generate the more geometric internal features, such as reinforcing ribs
and bosses for fixing.
A similar mix of technology is needed for tooling design. Surface
modeling is essential to undertake detailed operations like creating and
adjusting split lines. Solid modeling really comes into its own when the
designer moves from creating the core and cavity into building the rest of
the tool. Most of these other components are made up from simpler prismatic
shapes and the Parasolid kernel is the acknowledged leader for this type of
design work.
At CADCAM Matters, Delcam will also demonstrate the broad range of
machining systems that has made the company the world’s leading specialist
supplier of CAM software and services. “With PowerMILL, FeatureCAM,
PartMaker or ArtCAM, we now offer a CAM system to machine virtually any
product, in any material on any type of equipment,” claimed Delcam’s
Marketing Manager for China, Peter Dickin. “Recently, we have added
dedicated products for the manufacture of dental restorations and the
production of orthotics. No other supplier has such a broad range of
software to increase productivity, improve quality and shorten delivery
times in so many applications.”
