Kubotek Creation Engineering – Masters of Geometry – proudly announces the immediate availability of its KCM geometric modeling kernel. KCM solves the decades long CAD interoperability problem and supercharges compute intensive 3D modeling applications. KCM is available for integration into current and existing CAD/CAM, ray tracing, robotics or other 3D modeling applications. Software developers using KCM can now take full advantage of multiprocessor technology available on all modern computers. The KCM modeler is written from the ground up to be truly thread-safe, unlike older modelers whose thread-safety measures were added after multi-core processors became the norm. Older modelers programmed their thread-safety after the fact by using mutexes, severely limiting the speed at which the computer can utilize multiprocessor capabilities. Mutexes severely limit data flow while ensuring integrity of data in a multiprocessing environment. With KCM’s mutex-free thread-safe code, one customer’s application achieved an almost 100% increase in speed for every processor added

Maplesoft™, a leader in software products for technical education and research, announced today the release of the latest version of its popular testing and assessment tool, Maple T.A.™.  Maple T.A. is a powerful online testing and assessment system designed especially for courses involving mathematics, making it ideal for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses. Maple T.A. 2016 provides major enhancements for content authors, making it faster and easier to create and modify questions and assignments. After extensive consultations with customers, the basic authoring workflow has been completely redesigned to make it easier to create content. As a result, the process of authoring new questions and assignments is more intuitive and flexible, and the learning curve to become a productive author is greatly reduced. In addition, several types of questions, including sorting, clickable image, and interactive Math App, are now much easier to create. As well, authors can now apply

C3D Labs is pleased to announce that it has updated the portfolio of components for engineering software development. In version 2016, a brand-new C3D Visualization module joins the C3D Geometric kernel, C3D Parametric kernel, and C3D Conversion module. Also new is the ability of customers to license each module separately, or as a complete C3D Toolkit. This unbundling gives software developers the freedom to choose the most suitable combination of tools for their projects. C3D Modeler 2016 increases the performance of the modeler, with tests showing a significant acceleration of calculations on 3D models. In addition, the modeler is updated with the following features: Triangulation of triangular and flat rectangular faces, approximations of spheres by icosahedrons, and the elimination of crowding at the intersections of cylinders and ellipses Construct shell rings by segmenting sections pulled on an arc and another arc, segment, or point Stamping operations expanded from plane-bottomed structures to spherical stamping Transform polygonal

BOXX Technologies, the leading innovator of high-performance computer workstations and rendering systems, today announced that FLEXX G2, the first product in a rack-mounted computing ecosystem ideal for graphics intense 3D content creation and compute, will debut in BOXX booth #631 at the 2016 GPU Technology Conference (GTC), April 4-7, in San Jose, CA. Featuring modular compute nodes for power users, BOXX FLEXX will allow IT departments to centralize hardware resources without sacrificing the performance essential to their organization’s creative professionals. “At larger companies equipped with dedicated IT, the consolidation of hardware into a data center is the emerging trend,” said Shoaib Mohammad, BOXX VP of Marketing and Business Development. “But for creative pros, virtualization is not always the best fit due to performance limitations and software overhead. BOXX FLEXX is the solution, enabling IT departments to advance towards centralization while maintaining the power and performance their creative teams require.” FLEXX features all

Lectra is pleased to announce that Italian apparel manufacturing company Zamasport has chosen Lectra Fashion PLM to improve its product development processes for luxury brand collections. Founded in 1966, Zamasport has built a sturdy reputation for its expertise in developing entire collections of the high-end range, from creating the first prototype of a garment up to its production. Initially designing and distributing knitwear through its brand Callaghan, the company eventually branched out into manufacturing, becoming a crowd favorite among luxury brands. Today, the company develops more than twenty collections per year for premium brands. Due to its success and globalization, Zamasport finds itself facing demands for higher-volume orders to be delivered on time while maintaining high quality standards. “We are a very dynamic company and our top priority right now is to gain momentum and flexibility in order to fulfill our clients’ demands. Simulating product development cost estimates in advance

Nano Dimension’s ‘Lamborghini-like’ 3D printer offers electronics professionals the ability to rapidly produce functional multilayer PCB prototypes in-house. Using a combination of SOLIDWORKS 3D design software, Nano Dimension was able to visualize the DragonFly 2020 3D Printer and its components with accurate 3D illustrations of the design and renditions of the product, before actual production. Lena Kotlar, the R&D Mechanical Manager at Nano Dimension and designer of the DragonFly 2020 3D Printer, credits the SOLIDWORKS solutions for allowing her team to design the complex and unique printer so rapidly.   “Every bit of the unit -- mechanical parts, the housing, wires and cables -- was designed with SOLIDWORKS,” Ms. Kotlar said. “We used the software’s simulation capabilities to ensure the parts would work correctly together and the unit would function properly while building 3D printed circuit boards.”   The SOLIDWORKS ecosystem enabled the creation of the DragonFly 2020 3D

Altair is supporting the Vortex Bladeless, a Wind Energy Spanish Crowd Funding Project by providing free software licenses, training, and engineering services. Vortex Bladeless was founded in 2013 as an R&D company, exclusively dedicated to the development and marketing of Vortex, a multi-patented bladeless electric wind generator. The project focuses on the development of generators able to capture the kinetic wind energy by 'vortex shedding' and transform it into electricity. This new technology seeks to overcome issues related to traditional wind turbines such as maintenance, amortization, noise, environmental impact, logistics, and visual aspects. Currently, the company's focus is on the development of small wind products, with mass power generation devices planned for the future. The Vortex engineers have started to implement Altair's finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solutions for two-way Fluid Structure Interaction (2W-FSI) simulations in their development process, and have already benefited from Altair's expertise via
