The latest release of VISI CAD/CAM from Vero Software, which is being unveiled at the forthcoming MACH Exhibition, features innovative, unique technologies included for the first time. VISI 21 will be released shortly, and is being highlighted on stand 4426 in Hall 4 at the NEC in Birmingham, between April 7 - 11. This new release of the software focuses on advanced technologies both in its design and manufacturing aspects. General Manager Richard Youhill says VISI has always maintained a leading position in managing large amounts of CAD data and ease of use for definition of mould tools and assemblies. “Visitors to MACH will see how these key features are extended in the new release to include dedicated tools for creating and managing multiple cavities within a single tool, enabling components to be modified quicker and more efficiently. “Users will find higher levels of data and improved tools for creating geometry, along with enhancements

Delcam GmbH has opened a new office in Eislingen in Baden-Württemberg to further increase its sales in the southern part of Germany.  Delcam’s German subsidiary achieved record sales of software and maintenance in 2013 and, with the opening of the new office, is looking forward to even better growth this year. The modern offices in the attractive location of Eislingen were purchased in early November, 2013.  They offer a pleasant working environment for the planned total of seven staff team that is now being recruited. The opening of the new office is an important step to further develop the company’s business in southern Germany, where it is already seeing strong demand for its CAM and CAD systems, as well for its hardware-neutral inspection and reverse engineering software. “The location in Eislingen is ideal in order to increase our local presence in one of the world’s strongest economic regions – the Stuttgart area,” said

Mentor Graphics Corp. today announced that it has acquired Berkeley Design Automation, Inc.

This acquisition aligns EAC with industry trends toward Service Information Management (SIM), Service Lifecycle Management (SLM), and automated publishing of technical information. The Arbortext Business Unit will operate as the EAC Product Development Information Services group or PDIS, and provide implementation, customization, development, and support for the Arbortext product line. Thane Hathaway, President and CEO of EAC said: "Small and medium businesses (SMB's) need to manage and publish accurate product information in real time, across multiple platforms just like the Fortune 500's, but they've never had a world class and affordable solution. With this acquisition we've gained the unique ability to implement and support an end-to-end PLM and publishing system specifically tailored for SMB. We look forward to satisfying this market need while continuing to grow and develop these tools." Cory Huey, Vice President of Services at EAC said: "This acquisition opens the doors to many new possibilities. In the future we will develop

Dr. Vincent Talon, Chief of UET Modeling System 0D, Renault Dr. Vincent Talon is currently Renault’s Chief of UET Modeling System 0D, a role he assumed in 2013. In this role Dr. Talon is involved in architectural definition, control, validation, and tuning. Previously, he was involved in various activities at Renault including model development for HCCI combustion, a model system for control design, and control and tuning for the engine and driveline department. He is also a recognized expert for model system 0D. Dr. Talon's Ph.D. thesis looked into the gasoline engine model using a bond graph approach.  

Version 4.1 of PROSTEP's PDF Generator 3D is now available and offers a number of small but nonetheless excellent and very useful enhancements and new features. For example, in version 4.1, the Model Script plug-in for the converter engine – available since version 4.0 – provides a function that allows the color of product manufacturing information (PMI) to be changed as desired during conversion. This not only allows printing costs to be saved but also improves visualization of PMI. As of version 4.1, support is also provided for the CAD system version NX® 9 from Siemens PLM Software®. Another highlight that the new version of PDF Generator 3D offers is the merging of geometry data on any level. This allows individual assemblies to be grouped together for a spare parts BOM, for example, and at the same time allows methodology know-how to be hidden better – making an important contribution to know-how protection.

Nemetschek Scia will introduce Scia Design Forms, a new Open Design technology that allows Structural and Civil Engineers to centralize their engineering design tasks into one integrated workflow, at Structures Congress 2014 in Boston, Mass., which will take place April 2-4. Scia Design Forms allows civil and structural engineers to easily write their own checks and engineering calculations, which can then be linked to Scia Engineer, the company’s FEA (finite element analysis) software. With Scia Design Forms, engineering firms can:  Centralize design tasks into one integrated workflow, so there are fewer disparate analysis models that need to be manually coordinated. See exactly what formulas and methods are being used for a check, so designs are completely transparent, eliminating the “black box” aspect of current engineering design software. Easily modify code checks. Checks written with Scia Design Forms are open and can be easily edited. Remove the dependency on any one software vendor. With Scia Design Forms,
