RQM to Become 1st Customer of Materialise Magics e-RP
 ANN
ARBOR, MI,
May 20, 2008 - The US office of Materialise NV, world leader in software
development for the Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing (RP&M) industry, is
exhibiting at SME’s ‘Rapid Prototyping
and Manufacturing 2008’ from May 20th to 22nd, booth 501. At the show
Materialise will officially announce Rapid Quality Manufacturing, Inc. (RQM)
as the first customer worldwide of its Magics e-RP solution.
Magics e-RP is an advanced software solution for project and process
management within additive fabrication set-ups. It enables its users to
streamline and automate the entire RP&M process, from order follow-up and
data preparation, through platform scheduling and machine monitoring, to
production planning and part tracking. It is considered by industry leaders
as an essential step to move from RP to RM.
On October 15th, 2007 RQM, a subsidiary company of Morris Technologies,
Inc. (MTI), started beta testing the 1.2 version of Magics e-RP. With
version 1.3 and therewith Magics e-RP now released to the market, RQM is
extremely pleased to be able to integrate Magics e-RP in their operations.
“Magics e-RP is a powerful tool for companies that are leading the RP
industry into a true ‘production environment’”, says Curt Taylor, President
of RQM. “RQM knew that it needed Magics e-RP from the very beginning, as it
is the only system that is fine-tuned for usage in the additive fabrication
industry”.
Materialise is delighted to welcome RQM on board as its first Magics e-RP
customer. Magics e-RP is a new technology and is clearly not an
off-the-shelf product. It is a system which needs some degree of
customization for each individual company and needs integration into the
company’s process. “We need to control the roll-out of the system to the
market”, says Wim Michiels, Vice President of Materialise Software, “as we
want to ensure high quality implementation projects. Working with a company
like RQM and Curt Taylor in particular has been enriching, as they have a
strong vision of the future of additive manufacturing as a production
process – and the role of Magics e-RP therein. We are confident that Magics
e-RP will be valuable for them to meet their ambitious goals”.
