Spatial Renews Agreement With Kubotek
BROOMFIELD,
CO, and MARLBOROUGH, MA, May 8, 2008 - Spatial Corp., a market-leading
provider of 3D components for technology applications, and Kubotek Inc.,
makers of geometry-based KeyCreator computer-aided design (CAD) software,
renew their world class partnership by announcing a new contract and
commitment between the two companies. The new agreement enables Kubotek to
further enhance their product line using Spatial's market-leading 3D
component technologies as their foundation, and increases Spatial's level of
support and services. The agreement is designed to further Kubotek's
commitment to their customers.
"We have been very pleased with our on-going relationship with Spatial.
They share our dedication to providing customers the very best products and
services. We signed this agreement because we are completely focused on
offering the best 3D CAD software and translation solutions in the market,
and Spatial's ACIS and InterOp products are key components of our product
and strategy," Mark Parent, COO, Kubotek USA.
Spatial components are the building blocks and foundation for Kubotek's
software. Kubotek licenses Spatial's 3D Modeling and Interoperability
products including the 3D ACIS Modeler, 3D ACIS PHL V5, ACIS Deformable
Modeler, 3D InterOp Translators, 3D InterOp Manufacturing Options, and
Select Support, one of Spatial's premium support packages. Kubotek's product
line includes the flagship mechanical CAD software, KeyCreator, which brings
together multidimensional design and drafting, NC programming and
reverse-engineering capabilities. Kubotek's other products include REALyze
multiCAD data exchange tools, Kubotek Spectrum multiCAD viewer, and
Validation Tool.
Kubotek now imbeds Spatial's 3D InterOp and Manufacturing Option Suites
within KeyCreator. The 3D InterOp Suite helps KeyCreator's manufacturing
base of customers provide timely, reliable data translation for popular file
formats. These components translate product structure, 3D geometry and
common non-geometric data such as names, color, layers and coordinate
systems. The 3D InterOp Manufacturing Option components are plug-in options
that further improve productivity by enabling manufacturing information such
as geometric tolerances and dimensions to be translated directly from a 3D
source format, removing the need to re-enter data already captured in the
design. KeyCreator customers have a distinct advantage over their
competitors with this unique translation capability.
"Spatial and Kubotek have had a close working relationship for over 10
years. Both companies determined that it would be a good idea to update our
agreement to better fit today's product development needs and business
challenges. The result is a closer relationship that best suits Kubotek and
their customer's needs," stated Keith Mountain, CEO, Spatial. "Spatial is
responsive to our customer's evolving needs and is committed to providing
the very best products, services and mutually beneficial business
relationships to address them."
The new contract between Kubotek and Spatial provides Kubotek with
tighter product integration, an enhanced level of support services, pricing
and packaging flexibility, and a royalty agreement that aligns both
companies business objectives. This new contract supports Kubotek's
customers ability to purchase products configured in new ways, and supports
Kubotek's commitment to providing the highest level of customer support for
their customer's most challenging modeling needs.
