Euklid CAD/CAM AG Selects ModuleWorks Simulation Technology
 AACHEN,
Germany, Feb 10, 2010 - ModuleWorks, the leading supplier of CAD/CAM
components for 3-5-Axis toolpath generation and simulation have confirmed
their partnership with CAD/CAM Solution provider, Euklid CAD/CAM AG to
provide state-of-the art Simulation for the EUKLID product range. A full
case study may be found on the ModuleWorks www site, but the highlights are
included below.
EUKLID, from Switzerland, is a well known CAM system specializing in the
design and manufacture of mould tools and dies. It includes
sophisticated CAM strategies for machining including high speed cutting and
5-Axis simultaneous machining.
In 2008, Euklid recognized the growing demand for Simulation technology
from their customers and decided this needed to be a part of the EUKLID
product range. Customers were pushing harder for right first time and
looking to use simulation technology to help optimize tool paths and
eliminate programming errors and possible collisions.
In looking for a solution, Euklid evaluated a number of providers and
selected ModuleWorks as the preferred simulation partner. The decision came
down to a number of factors including time to market, ease of
implementation, technical support and the size and manufacturing
expertise of the ModuleWorks team.
EUKLID simulation was released in 2009 and enthusiastically received by
EUKLID customers. Heribert Kaiser, Sales Director for Euklid comments “Our
customers immediately saw the added value provided by our simulation
software. In many cases they reported that they had improved the programming
process and part quality and that their operators were more confident
working with the final NC program. We saw a positive impact on sales and our
customers were happy with the additional tools so this was a true win-win
situation”.
David Plater, Technical Director comments “Simulation is an increasingly
important aspect of the manufacturing process with customers expectations of
virtual prove out increasing as graphics hardware and software has become
ever more powerful. Our technology is ideal for CAM vendors offering easy
integration of high performance simulation technology and we’re delighted to
have Euklid as a partner.”
