CONTACT Software is now providing its offering for the early phase of product development and the rapid development and functional validation of model variants through an independent company. To do this, the company founded Fast Concept Modelling & Simulation GmbH, which is headquartered in Munich. The subsidiary is responsible for business activities in the field of product validation. The offering is centered around Fast Concept Modelling (FCM), an innovative, CATIA CAA-based software that allows a greater degree of automation when using numeric calculation methods. CONTACT's managing director Karl Heinz Zachries outlines the objectives of the new subsidiary: "This realignment will allow us to establish FCM in the market long-term by systematically driving forward the development and marketing of the product together with new partners." According to Zachries, the new, autonomous limited company will be able to concentrate on the extremely specialized domain of simulation and computation, operate with greater agility and provide

BIMobject® announced the BOPC™ technology at the BIMobject® LIVe conference in Malmö. The new cloud solution is aimed to address the growing demand of extended properties in objects also known as parameters, meta data or attributes. Many initiatives around the world are working with setting future standards for properties but they don't address the critical fact of how to get this to the market, to the users and how to integrate it into the BIM objects and BIM models in an easy way. BOPC™ is the first cloud solution that solves this problem. It is easy to use and practical way to add property sets from standardization organisations around the world. BOPC™ can also be used to solve the fact that manufacturers might want some additional properties in their objects, as well as advanced users like construction companies and developers can add hidden properties to objects to drive logistics and purchasing at

Delcam will show the 2015 version of its PowerMILL CAM system for high-speed and five-axis machining at the JIMTOF exhibition to be held in Tokyo from 30th October to 4th November.  The new release includes improvements to the Vortex high-efficiency area-clearance strategy, improved collision checking to also cover near misses, and more efficient raster finishing. For further details on PowerMILL 2015, including video demonstrations of the new functionality, please go to www.delcam.tv/pm2015/lz The Vortex area-clearance strategy produces safe toolpaths with a much deeper cut by using a controlled engagement angle that maintains the optimum cutting conditions for the whole toolpath.  As a result, higher feed rates and material-removal rates are possible, making the cutting time shorter by as much as 70%.  In addition, cutting is undertaken at a more consistent volume-removal rate and at a near constant feed rate, so extending tool life and protecting the machine.  Two enhancements in PowerMILL 2015 will give

Next week, attendees of the International Highway Engineering Exchange (IHEEP) Conference will have the opportunity to learn how the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and Kansas Department of Transportation (KS-DOT) are capitalizing on digital communication to shorten timelines and manage projects throughout the entire project lifecycle.
