CADCENTRE Asia Pacific Merges with ENVIZAGE in Australia
 SYDNEY,
Australia,
Aug 29, 2008 – ENVIZAGE, the business group that is part of the privately
owned Australian company CONCENTRIC Asia Pacific, has announced that it has
expanded its offerings to the Australian product design, engineering and
manufacturing communities by incorporating Melbourne-based CADCENTRE Asia
Pacific.
CADCENTRE Asia Pacific was started in 2003 and has specialized in the
Autodesk range of Manufacturing Solutions within Victoria - including
AutoCAD LT, AutoCAD, AutoCAD Mechanical, Autodesk Electrical, Autodesk
Inventor, Autodesk Productstream and Vault. These solutions are
complementary to the Autodesk visualization portfolio – Autodesk ImageStudio,
Autodesk AliasStudio, Autodesk Showcase and Autodesk Portfolio wall -
already offered nationally by ENVIZAGE.
"Together, the entire range of Autodesk products provides what they refer
to as Digital Prototyping. This encompasses the full cycle of product
development from concept to production. Whereas in the past, ENVIZAGE and
CADCENTRE have been separate operations of CONCENTRIC, we have decided that
the best way to support our customers across the nation is to bring them
together as one", says newly appointed manager, Mach Dinh-Vu.
Mach Dinh-Vu has more than a decade of experience in a senior Asia
Pacific management role with Bentley and more than 25 years experience in
IT.
"The 'new' ENVIZAGE is now a multi-disciplinary business specializing in
digital prototyping, visualization, simulation, and advanced manufacturing.
This means that our customers have a single Technology Partner capable of
assisting them all the way from the raw concepts of a design to supplying
the market", he adds.
"Not only do we feature the Autodesk suite of solutions, we also have an
experienced team of engineers capable of providing on-demand services... as
an extension of an engineering department in times of peak capacity, or when
specialist assistance is required such as finite element analysis."
ENVIZAGE is now an enterprise of more than 25 people with offices in
Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane, and representation in
Canberra and New Zealand. The team includes business managers, services
engineers, accredited trainers, support technicians and manufacturing
specialists. Via CONCENTRIC Asia Pacific it is also part of a worldwide
knowledge/resource-sharing alliance with high profile engineering technology
providers in India, France and the United States.
"The coming together of ENVIZAGE and CADCENTRE under the one brand has
dramatically increased the level of expertise we bring to market, as well as
our resource base."
The new-look ENVIZAGE is more than software and engineering services. The
advanced manufacturing division located at Brisbane Technology Park features
a foundry, casting facility, 3D printers and rapid prototyping, industrial
spray booth, NC machining, and a specialist hand assembly-finishing team. It
has a diverse customer base from the craniofacial surgery unit of Royal
Adelaide Women's and Children's Hospital to aerospace. From car makers to
cook tops, mining trucks to medical equipment, artificial knees to
architects, state government trophies to sports cars, train cabins to the
Torana TT34 concept car. ENVIZAGE has contributed to Toyota winning
back-to-back Australian Rally Championships and Manufacturers Championships,
and to teams in the V8Supercars and Nurburgring 24 Hour race. It has the
ability to produce life like full size products with working components, and
either one part or one thousand parts made from low-cost prototype or actual
production materials.
"Companies can partner with us from the time they create a raw concept
and by utilizing the Autodesk digital prototyping solutions and our
understanding of the global market, along with our physical prototyping and
rapid manufacturing technology, we can help them get their products to
market a lot quicker and more efficiently", says Michael Myers, Managing
Director of CONCENTRIC Asia Pacific which is celebrating its 25th year of
operation.
"ENVIZAGE always been unique based on its capabilities and now we have
made it an even more specialized type of business in this part of the
world", adds Mr. Myers.
