ProFab Hip Pocket Demo and Video Now
Available
Sheet Metal CAM software includes a
direct interface to SolidWorks
Milford, OH, July 29, 2004
— Applied Production, Inc. announced today that the ProFab
Hip Pocket Demo and Introduction to ProFab video are now
available. These great new marketing tools show how easily
ProFab Sheet Metal CAM software automates and optimizes the
process of programming a CNC Turret Punch Press or Laser
Machine. The ProFab Hip Pocket Demo and Introduction to
ProFab video are available on the “Partner Interactive
Demos, Videos and Case Studies” page of the SolidWorks Web
site (www.solidworks.com/pages/partners/Hip_pocket_demo_public.html)
and at
www.AppliedProduction.com.
As a leader in the programming of CNC Punch Presses and
Laser Machines, the ProFab Hip Pocket Demo is a PowerPoint
presentation constructed in such a way that it appears as if
the user is giving a ProFab demonstration. This is a very
easy way for sales people and application engineers to
demonstrate ProFab along with its SolidWorks® interface,
without being an expert using the ProFab software.
The Introduction to ProFab video provides streaming video of
SolidWorks software and ProFab in action. A sheet metal part
designed in SolidWorks is used to show how ProFab is
integrated in SolidWorks, eliminating the need to export and
import data. ProFab provides the user the most powerful set
of tools for programming a CNC Punch Presses or Laser
machines. AutoTool, interactive nesting, and optimize are
just some of the features highlighted. Engineers and
designers use ProFab and SolidWorks so they can manufacture
better products faster and more efficiently, speeding time
to market. The SolidWorks model used in the video as well as
a 30-day ProFab trial is available for download at
www.AppliedProduction.com.
“SolidWorks is the
standard for 3D mechanical design software,” said Brian
Houle, Partner Program manager for SolidWorks. “Combining it
with ProFab gives engineers the tools they need to do their
jobs faster and better by reducing programming time and
increasing shop floor productivity.”
The SolidWorks Partner Program features products and
services that complement SolidWorks products. ProFab
supports SolidWorks 2004 3D mechanical design software.
ProFab includes a direct interface to SolidWorks and
provides users with instant access to ProFab within the
SolidWorks window. SolidWorks has more partners in the
mid-range CAD market than any competing technologies, with
more than 600 companies worldwide participating in the
SolidWorks Partner Program.
