Schott Systeme Showcases CAD/CAM to the Asian Market at the Asiamold exhibition

Guangzhou, China - German CAD/CAM software developer Schott Systeme have for the third consecutive year, used the Asiamold exhibition to showcase their latest CAD/CAM software release to some of Asia's leading mold makers. This years show also highlighted a significant increase in the number of Chinese companies both designing and producing their own products, as opposed to just manufacturing mold tools for 3rd parties.

Thus, with this years focus very much centering around cost effective design and machining, Schott Systeme were invited to host a one hour live presentation at the 'Design and Engineering' forum. Here attendees were given a glimpse of the very latest 3D conceptual design techniques, with Schott Systeme showing how initial concept sketches could be easily transformed into complex 3D prototypes, with a minimal amount of input from the designer. New innovations in mixed freeform solid, surface and mesh modelling also helped to highlight the ability to create core/cavity molds from a wide range of differing design data.

Seamless integration of high end machining was also 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 prototypes and molds, either constructed as solids, surfaces or mesh models. With an increasing number of CNC machine tools being delivered to Chinese mold makers, Schott Systeme's continued policy of providing machine post processors free of charge was also warmly welcomed.
