80+ Attend FeatureCAM Sales Partner Meeting
 BIRMINGHAM,
UK, June 30, 2008 - Delcam’s FeatureCAM Division held its biggest-ever Sales
Partner Meeting earlier this month. More than 80 delegates attended the
meeting, which was held near the Delcam USA headquarters in Salt Lake City.
Delcam USA President Glenn McMinn was able to report strong progress in all
areas of the FeatureCAM business over the past year, continuing the
considerable expansion in the organization that has been seen in the three
years since it became part of the Delcam group.

“The company saw a steady growth in sales again in 2007, taking us up to
a more than 50% increase since the Delcam acquisition,” he stated. “Our
customers continue to praise the rapid development of our software, in
particular the way in which we have been able to add options to program more
complex machines, such as five-axis and mill-turn equipment, without
impacting on the ease of use of the software. We now have twice as many
developers devoted to FeatureCAM, plus we have been able to make our
expanded team more productive by sharing technology with the main Delcam
development staff in Birmingham. Progress is well under way on the
FeatureCAM 2009 release. This version, which will be launched at IMTS in
September, incorporates enhancements across the whole product family.”
A major program of training has been undertaken to ensure that the
expanded distribution network can provide FeatureCAM customers with the high
levels of support for which Delcam is renowned. “One of our key objectives
when we joined Delcam was to expand our global reseller network,” said Mr.
McMinn. “We are now seeing the benefits of being part of a truly
international organization. An extra bonus was being able to recruit some of
Delcam’s experienced North American resellers to strengthen our distribution
in the USA.”
One of the Delcam resellers, Programming Plus from Wisconsin, received
recognition at the meeting as the Top New FeatureCAM Sales Partner of the
Year. Sintesi was the overall Top FeatureCAM Sales Partner after a record
year for the company in Italy. Regional Sales Partner Awards went to Japan’s
FCS International for Asia, Delcam GmbH in Germany for Europe and Trimech
Manufacturing in the USA for North America, while ProFORCE Integrated
Solutions, also from the USA, was awarded Most Improved Sales Partner.
The combined marketing power of the merged companies has been seen in a
greater interest in Delcam at a number of exhibitions, especially in Europe
with EMO in Germany, Industries in France and MACH in the UK all attracting
record numbers of visitors to the Delcam stands. “With the full range of
Delcam products, we can provide a programming system for virtually any
machine tool that a company might have,” claimed Mr. McMinn. “This means
that visitors to a Delcam stand can be confident that they will find
software to increase their productivity, reduce their lead times and improve
their quality, whatever type of machine they run. I am confident that the
launch of FeatureCAM 2009 later this year, together with the new versions of
the other Delcam products, will ensure that our stands at IMTS and JIMTOF
will set even more records.”
