Mumbai, India, April 20121 – German CAD/CAM software developer SCHOTT SYSTEME GmbH has used this year’s Diemould exhibition to showcase their latest CAD/CAM software release to India’s leading mould makers. Evident at this year’s exhibition was the increase in the number of products being designed and produced for India’s own consumer markets. To compliment this trend, SCHOTT SYSTEME provided exhibition attendees with live presentations highlighting the integrated design and machining tools contained within their 'Pictures by PC' CAD/CAM software. Presentations included the software’s latest hybrid solid/surface and mesh modelling techniques, helping designers to transform their conceptual sketches into working prototypes. These advanced modelling tools were also demonstrated within the mould tool environment, helping to streamline the process of creating part core and cavity moulds. The seamless integration of machining was high on the list of priorities, and here SCHOTT SYSTEME showcased how their very latest 3 axis and 5 axis simultaneous machining techniques could be instantly applied to both prototypes and moulds. With purchase and running costs being a primary consideration for Indian companies, SCHOTT SYSTEME’s continued policy of providing machine post processors and support free of charge was warmly welcomed.
