Planit, MachineWorks Renew Long Term Partnership Agreement

TUSCALOOSA, AL, Sep 22, 2009 - Planit Software , a market-leading provider of CAD/CAM/CAE software, and MachineWorks Ltd., supplier of true solid-based simulation and verification toolkit technology, renew their 15-year partnership by announcing a new contract between the two companies. Planit’s commitment confirms that once again, MachineWorks is the preferred solution for material removal, full machine simulation and collision detection. The renewed agreement also paves the way for Planit to make further use of the expanding range of MachineWorks’ component technologies, as Russell Franks, Planit CTO explains

“The Planit brands of Alphacam and Edgecam have a long-established relationship with MachineWorks in collaborating to produce the finest CAM solutions of their type in the world. The new commercial agreement between us is built upon a basis of mutual respect, trust and flexibility and provides an excellent foundation for both businesses to thrive in their chosen markets. We place high value on having MachineWorks as a strategic technical partner and believe this association will significantly assist with the ongoing development of the Planit portfolio

On a technical level our relationship with Machineworks has enabled us to continue to make considerable performance improvements with our products and close communication with their development team ensures that we will continue to deliver the best CAM solution possible.”

Planit Software and MachineWorks go back a long way. MachineWorks has been providing simulation technology to Alphacam since 1995 and to Edgecam since 2000.

The updated agreement reflects a better fit for the use of MachineWorks Technologies throughout the Planit group product range. “We are delighted that Planit has decided to renew their commitment and we expect to work together for many years to come”, says Mike Nicholson, Sales & Marketing Director.
