AutoForm and Tebis Team
to Provide Die-Making Software
Friday, October 27, 2006
AutoForm Engineering, with a U.S. office in Troy, MI, and Tebis AG of Germany have announced that they are cooperating to provide combined software technologies for die-making industries. AutoForm develops die-face design and simulation software for die-making and sheetmetal-forming industries while Tebis provides 3D CAD/CAM software primarily for model, mold and die manufacturing.
“The method of using Tebis RSC (Rapid Surface Creation) to create die surfaces is an ideal complement to the AutoForm-DieDesigner technology,” says Robert Cesak, Tebis president, describing the integrated software system. “Process planners and die designers that use both software in combination will benefit from improved CAE/CAD functionalities that result in significant time savings in the layout, design and modification of their dies.”
